The fact that nearly 20 people tried to hijack planes on 9-11, and succeeded, suggests to me that terrorists were feeling bold enough. I don't know how many times people have tried since then -- actually tried. Do you?
Except for Reid of course.

I don't think many tried before 9-11. And I firmly believe that if the screeners were not in place after 9-11 Al Queda would have hit again, and if not Al Queda, a lot of copy catters would have hit us once they knew we were vulverable.
Right now its not easy to get enough explosive material past the screeners to take down a plane, and if it was, I believe people would be doing it.
