Sunday October 31

In Sunday's paper, there seemed to be a very scary theme, but not the Halloween kind of scary.  Most of the articles in Sunday's paper were about the recent developments in a terror threat and the ways that terrorists have been plotting and coming closer to succeeding.  Terrorists have been putting an explosive known as Pentaerythritol tetranitrate, or PETN, into printer cartridges and shipping them on planes.  Luckily, the government has caught onto it on two America-bound flights.It is very scary to see that something so simple as a printer cartridge and how no one would think to look there. Another attack is imminent, the problem is stopping it before it happens.  There have also been incidents of hiding PETN inside bombers underwear and cadavers.
