However, he adds, &quot;Pilots would hate it and would fight you every step of the way.  They would rather be sealed in the cockpit than let a computer fly the plane.&quot;"/>

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stratfor.com/home/0109132130.htm&quot;&gt;Stratfor&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;The terrorists who attacked the World Trade Center and Pentagon Sept 11 practiced near-perfect operational planning, coordination and execution before their mission but left behind obvious evidence leading to other operatives who may have supported the hijackings. This begs the question of whether these evidence trails were intentionally left in order to distract U.S. law enforcement from other terrorists.&quot;"/>

I climbed into bed, proped up my pillows into reading position, and I opened up to a chapter I'd never read: Islam.&quot;"/>
		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,46852,00.html&quot;&gt;Wired&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;FBI agents soon may be able to spy on Internet users legally without a court order.&quot;"/>
		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/14/opinion/14FRI3.html&quot;&gt;NY Times editorial&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Since cell-phone technology first came into common use in the past few years, there have been instances where someone trapped, nearing death, was able to call home and say goodbye. But there has been no instance like that on Tuesday, when so many doomed people called the most meaningful number they knew from wherever they happened to be and prayed that someone would pick up on the other end.&quot;"/>

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=24444&quot;&gt;Harry Browne&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Our foreign policy has been insane for decades. It was only a matter of time until Americans would have to suffer personally for it. It is a terrible tragedy of life that the innocent so often have to suffer for the sins of the guilty.&quot;"/>

		<outline text="What you can do: Renew friendships with people who are considered enemies, but actually are not. Use the Internet to meet people with strange last names, and ask questions and listen to what they say. If they express anger, try to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=validate&quot;&gt;validate&lt;/a&gt; it, not negate it.

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.designweenie.com/blog/archive.php?981818006&quot;&gt;James Spahr&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;I've been very hungry for news that will explain to me why this happened. I'm not talking about the failure of our intelligence community; I'm talking about the history of the US foreign policy in the middle east.&quot;"/>

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scrollbar.com/2001/09/13.html&quot;&gt;Jeff Kandt&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;President Bush now promises 'victory' over terrorism. This strikes me as incredibly naive, or cynical, or both. We can try to limit our exposure. We can turn ourselves into a police state, trading freedom for security. But how can you defend against someone willing to die for his cause?&quot;"/>
		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2001/09/13/justice/index.html&quot;&gt;Michael Klare&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;The image of American aircraft and missiles bombing Arab states and producing massive casualties -- many of them, inevitably, civilians with no ties to terrorists -- will surely confirm the belief among many ordinary Muslims that bin Laden is right: that the United States is intent on tormenting and subduing the Islamic world.&quot;"/>
		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.csmonitor.com/2001/0914/p1s2-wogi.html&quot;&gt;Christian Science Monitor&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;If bin Laden is, indeed, the source of the attacks, US retribution is likely to be geographically complex and replete with risks that could lead to a wider war.&quot;"/>

Both Palestinians and Israelis have shown support and donated blood for the victims of the 11 September 2001 attacks in New York and Washington, DC.&quot;"/>
		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.davosnewbies.com/2001/09/14&quot;&gt;Lance Knobel&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;In Britain, as across Europe, there was a three minute silence today at 11 in the morning. In my office, people switched off their computer screens and concentrated on private thoughts. What was extraordinary was the lack of sound. The bustling square outside our office was suddenly stilled, with no taxis or errant car alarms breaking the hush.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="I was asking for a scanner for a long time, I got it, and it's revolutionized coverage of concepts on Scripting News. I have another dream. I want a telephone number that I can call that records a message, stores it as an MP3 on a static server, and emails me the URL. Then I would run a script that moves it to a UserLand server, and link to it from Scripting News. This would allow me to interview people. This is something I like to do. If we can find such a service, I'd like to buy some stock. There would be a per-minute charge. Reliability and service would matter."/>

But at the same time, agencies and clients say they're eager to show the world that the nation isn't paralyzed by the news.&quot;"/>
