Absolutely. But, as far a worrying about one's own children goes, dying in an auto accident is far more likely than being killed by a terrorist attack. When I use to let my kids walk to school, and when I now let my kids drive, I know that I am risking their safety. Their safety is more important than my own, but I am not ready to protect them at all costs. Dan M. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
