"We will never know how many lives were saved due to the diligence of customs agent Diana Dean." True, but I also think the public response to the capture of the millenium bomber illustrates how bogus a lot of this woulda, shoulda, coulda stuff really is. With the exception of the Seattle mayor cancelling their New Year's Eve celebration, the rest of the country went on as usual. I remember discussions contrasting Mayor Guiliani's style with that of Mayor Stamper? (I think that was his name Norm somethig or other.) People went out into the streets of NY as usual. Yet one of the Jersey Girls wants us to believe that had her husband been aware of some vague theory about airliners being used as missles, her husband wouldn't have been in the WTC. Really? He would have chosen to avoid the WTC for the rest of his life? I'm betting that really would have put a damper on his career. Yeah right! All this mulling over what woulda/coulda/shoulda been done is so meaningless.
Yep. That's why I said we will never know.
