The feds are worried because they've found some unusual items in airline passengers' luggage recently including wires, switches, pipes or tubes, cell phone components and dense clay-like substances, including block cheese. See AP story. They are worried that the items may be part of rehearsals for terrorist activities on airplanes. Closer to home, does James Wood intuition make anyone wonder if there's a connection between Monday's fuel depot arson fire and the noxious fumes released in the NorthTown Mall in February, an incident that prompted the evacuation of the mall and an FBI investigation (ongoing) into the incident as a possible terrorist incident. Update: Could the massive explosion this morning at the Southwest Industrial Gases Plant in Dallas be part of this, too? And how about the power outages in San Francisco that shut down major Web sites yesterday?
