I suppose in any line of work, it is hard to find someone, that understands the hazzards of just plain avoiding being part of someone elses problems of the day. Look how long the NEWS can keep our focus on any tragedy, whether man made, or weather related, what are we supposed to do, sit in a bomb shelter, while it fills up with water, and we drown, or take a chance, and venture out to whatever type of entertainment we choose to watch/do, I know of no way to avoid every possible fate that could befall us, after all, we are by nature, a people who demand to be entertained, be it something we do, or with others, and the press will make every attempt, how ever inept, to gain our focus. It is sad, people died, and a historic airplane was destroyed, but, it happens everyday, and life goes on, all we can do, is the best we can, we don't have an indefinate time on this earth, and even less time to avoid every possible way we can meet our end. What next, ban fires, and hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes? Good luck with that. Bob
