If it can have an imapct on me here, how are you going to tell me children in that area were not affected? We have no clue as to what portion of thier young and developing minds were blocked, damaged or stressed. These types of psycological set backs are hard to measure, to disprove them proves even more so difficult. We can have a creative child, who once expossed to similar situations, no longer shows a creative strength. Many avenues in a childs mind are sensitive to outside factors. The fusealble links in a developing mind can be damaged by such terror. We really do not know how many children were affected by the event. Unless you are willing to tell me that no child was adversly afected by the situation. I couldn't make that claim becuase my own daughter had worries about me going to the gas station! Could you?

If every possible scenario of developmental progress is going to be raised, then I need to be put to death for wearing my pants too low. . Obviously, you are coming from a different standpoint & with a different sort of ammunition than myself; but, I don't believe that there was an abundance of developmental damage to our prescious children's brains. This is a lose-lose argument, though, so allow me to concede now. If I had a child, it would be a completely different scenario, I'm sure.
