re: #321 austin_blue

Thank you. I watched the smoke from my building (+/- 6 miles).

Eerie. Got e-mails from friends and family from everywhere. Gratifying.

People ask if this was a terrorist attack. I don’t think so. This was an individual action based on individual crazee. Terrorism needs at least two players.

We were worried about you here.

I find this question of terminology interesting… I heard some random talking head on the radio also assert that this was not a terrorist attack. My thought was, ‘but he flew an airplane into a building full of people, what else do we call it?’ Confusing.

Not organised terrorism I suppose, but what he did is not much different from the various lone acts of terrorism we see from time to time by people unaffiliated with terrorist groups. Perhaps we need the term Terrorism as opposed to terrorism.
