Now what ?

More immediate than the long-term question of "How to prevent terrorism", there's the here and now question of "How do we live with it?" Do we live-off homegrown potatoes, carrots, chicken and eggs not to offer our precious selves to public spaces? Or do we just get on with our lives as if nothing happened? The latter seems to be the most popular option. "Get going, people. Mourn, but act as if nothing happened!" Remember the famous call by Bush to keep shopping after 9/11? And now, the Queen.

I just don't know. Yes, we shouldn't give in to "terror" since it's the goal of terrorism. But at the same time, it feels like something should change, and not only in the way of more paranoia. Should we be more open to each other?

Blogs are a good place to vent opinions. I guess they're just as good when you don't have one either...
