We also knew about guns, and bombs, and chemicals that could poison a city's waters, or a population's food supply, or air, and we knew about threats to power sources, and to fuel storage areas, and to mass transit, and to large crowds in sporting events or big malls, and we knew about dams that could be blown, and we knew about schools that could be destroyed, and we knew about hot air balloons that could descend and blow up, and we knew about internet hackings that could render us down for days, and we knew about telecommunications centers that could cripple us if destroyed, and we knew about . . . sheesh, we knew about all of those things, and OBL only had to choose one, or come up with a completely new way, and you want to say "but you knew about it - how could you be so stupid as to not predict and stop it!"?
This is getting wacko.
