Do you fear that terrorists are going to harm you personally or are you just worried about reading about it in the newspaper?

I'm afraid of no man.

I really don't know how people get through the day when they're so busy cowering in the corner and trembling from the thought of whatever it is they fear.

I'm no alarmist, but I do fear that one day terrorists will be planting dirty bomb and poisoning our food/water supplies. It's not an irrational fear, it's just reality. It is a real threat.

Am I afraid to hop on an airplane because of the terrorist threat? No.
