Agreed.

Last night on the news a reporter ask Chicago Police Supt. Hillard about duct tape and plastic sheeting in the event of an attack. He said "If we're attacked with Sarin or Anthrax and anybody thinks they're going to be protected by duct tape ..." He couldn't even finish. He shook his head in obvious disgust and walked away from the podium. Behind his right shoulder was Mayor Daley shacking his head and muttering "plastic sheeting." It was actually encouraging to see two top law enforcement officials in Chicago hold such pragmatic opinions and to not allow themselves to be caught up in the hystaria. After all, they will be the Chicago government's decision makers in the event of a true disaster or emergency.
