Having been on the receiving end of bomb threats and having dealt with a "suspicious white powder" immediately after the Sept. 11 attack, I can assure you that a little paranoia is a good thing.

However, I really think that the paranoia is being overdone.

On the other hand, nobody promised anyone total and complete security or a life completely free from all danger. Ain't never happened, and it ain't happening now. I guess it never will.
