Lydy Nickerson: (quoted out of order) New York City, to some extent, belongs to all of us.

I think you are right. I think NYC "means America" in some sense in the hearts of good and decent people. I think in the dark hearts of these people in the Federal Government who are supposed to be helping us protect ourselves, I think NYC is something to be used for their own cynical purposes.

(continued): I find the argument that a series of terrorist strikes throughout the heartland would be more terrifying than an attack on a major icon to be unconvincing.

I do too. We all know it's coming and we all know these idiots in charge of giving NYC the money to protect itself are going to let it happen. I tell you, it begins to feel hopeless after a while.

Heh. I was going to call my post this morning "Night of the Generals" as well. Fortunately, I changed my mind and named it "Some Number of Days in March and April".

In case anybody is interested, I swiped a copy of what purports to be the Nuclear Option agreement from the Free Republic site.

Um, as it happens, I heard a story on the radio yesterday about Sophie Calle (artist, french), and it really got me going on the whole subject of Stories. I wrote something about it last night, a post in which I discover I am a storiopath. Maybe the post is somewhat tangential to the topic of needing particular stories to be written, but maybe not so much.
