Seems homeland security have been ramping up the paranoia a good bit today, its strange how nothings been said on this side of the pond , on the bbc's news site theres not even a small piece about this and i think we'd be the first to know.

They better not crash a bloody 747 into the party i'm going to!

Well, Nerdling, all we can do is hope for the best and nothing will happen tomorrow. I'm flying to NYC tomorrow and I must admit that I am feeling quite nervous. Not so much about the flight but being downtown during the celebration. At any rate, best wishes for a happy new year!
