  1. Re:Possibilities vs. Probabilities... on Rand Report Says Geospatial Data Not Big Threat · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't think the toxin would do the damage, the wave of fear that would pass through the population would be all the terrorist would aim for.

    Nobody need die, just the continual fear of something happening is more crippling to a population.

    But if there was a nationwide attack on all root water sources with a 'megadose of toxin' even if it was noticed, where would our water come from?

    Basically, I think we would be stuffed for a few weeks...

    What I want to know is how many more targets or methods the terrorists have that the FBI, MI5, etc. have not even considered?

    Have they considered the chance of a coordinated poisoning of all the US drinking water sources with the Ebola virus (or another virus that would survive the filtration process)?

    I know that here in Australia that there are thousands of kilometres of exposed water pipes (Perth to Kalgoorlie is a good example) that can easily be accessed. With the right tools you could tap into the pipe and put any substance you want into the water.

    I think the case is actually that tomorrow is always a better day to buy a computer.

    So today is a better day to buy a computer than yesterday, so today is a good time to buy a computer.

    I guess the Iraqis killing US servicepeople are doing so with water pistols?

    No, Rocket Propelled Grenades are much more effective. But seriously, have a look at the comparative death tolls between the Coalition and Iraqis, ~600 vs ~11,000. I think the trigger happy US are more deadly with or without their guns.

    in fact, they're better than anything else, *especially* if you're a woman defending herself against stranger rape.

    So you wouldn't use a gun if someone you knew was raping you?
