Woot! You guys are awesome. And, I feel you on the dirty germy stuff. Ew. We drive a lot when we travel, only booking flights when absolutely necesssary. (although, think of the icky germs on a cruise, and I LOVE taking cruises.) My husband flies all the time, and requires a shot of whiskey to get him through it. And yeah, I totally feel much safer with my sister flying out of Raleigh tomorrow with the extra security measures. Cheers! The UK Rocks! Woot! You guys are awesome.

What's important are small steps toward safety, and the illusion of safety for the majority of the public.All said, it's still much much more dangerous riding to the airport, than getting on a plane.
