i think when im in any large crowd i will be on alert, i never ever thought about a bomb on a plane until a few yrs ago and now when i fly i think about it almost every time

Really? Gonna look around? Then what? Enjoy your concerts and let security do it's job. Hopefully you'll be fine.

i know MP what you are saying but the world we live in today make you rethink a lot of things we should never think of

Years ago I expressed concern to a statistician friend about odds of my boarding a plane where someone might have a bomb.

He ran the numbers and reported back the odds were 12million to one.

But then I started thinking of 1500+ flights daily in the USA alone with avg 200 passengers and it seemed those odds would shrink fast.

So he did some more numbers and reported back, "Just smuggle a bomb on board yourself!"

Because, he had figured out the odds of TWO bombs on the same plane were closer to 1billion to one.



It was about then I lost faith in statistics for forecasting the future
