Security level goes from "Elevated" to "High". Does anybody care? Does anything think this is "wolf" being cried too many times? Why is Ashcroft being so vague?

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>I saw no indication that they didn't have any information on a terrorist attack on July 4 and Sept 11 (2002), except that it happened to fall on an "important" date, nor was there anybody arrested for terrorism those days because of the "High" alert. While I don't agree with the whole Homeland Security thing, I understand its implementation, and turning it on for the smallest thing is going to weaken its message.

I heard from Ashcroft that he mentioned that it was turned on today because of a Muslim holiday that "might encourage terrorist attacks". Turning on the system just because it happens to be "that time of month" is NOT the proper usage of the system.</div>
