Felt threatened since 9/11? Take this survey. It attempts to link our perception of threats with our exposure to particular media -- good approach, unlike some other 9/11 surveys.

i was worried the survivalists would pour down from the mountains to ravage sorority girls before their jesus fetish was realized from a golden escalator of vengeful secular bashing.


Yeah... That's what I was worried about too.

I was in tune with the events of sept 11 for about 2 weeks then it became so commercialized

That's only a survey in the broadest sense of the term. It's a self-selecting group of respondents replying from targeted or limited advertisement, composed of only people with an interest in filling out the form who might have come across it, who also have internet access. So responses are very interesting without having any bearing on any "trend."

That being said: I love listening to how men never cop to feeling threatened. Or, maybe they actually never DO feel threatened?

I felt threatened. One of the first things I did after the shock wore off (as all of this happened while I was on the bus to work that morning) was check PBS's site and discovered that even the smallest nuclear strike anywhere in the Seattle area would likely kill me regardless of where I was. After that reality set in, I was sorta numbed to the rest.
