    Yep. I would fly. It's just a date. Yes, something awful happened on that date in 2001. But, the older you get, the more dates there will be that have negative memories. Don't alter your life because of it. That's what they want. I refuse to give them that power over my life. Fly. Have a wonderful time. Turn it into a positive. Make a new memory for September 11. That's what we've done for Kuhio's Bridgeday (Aug. 6). Otherwise, I don't think we would get through it every year.

    I'd do it, no questions. Especially as you're going to be flying a relatively short hop, that I doubt terrorist would even bother with!

    I usually don't like to live in fear but I would probably extend my vacation by one day.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    I have heard many people say this, and my thought is that if you are dead they have gotten total power over your life.

    Why not stay a little longer. I would put it off, but that's just me.

    I humbly disagree. It is in your power to choose how to live your life. If you make decisions on how to live it based on fear, you are letting others control your actions. I can't live that way. Sure, you may "exist" longer on this planet, but to me it wouldn't really be living.

    No offense, but Gini asked for opinions and Pam gave hers. Everyone operates differently and some people, regardless of terrorists threats, just don't like to fly anyway. But if Pam expressed how "she" would handle a flight that day, then I think we all need to respect it, even if we would handle it differently.

    Thanks, Laurie. I am probably a greater fan of you than you are of me. One day, I want to see you in person.
