They just announced another non-specific terrorism threat for the next week, based on more "credible evidence", which naturally didn't specify where anything *might* happen.

This will also help us know when to stop reading the news, or which news articles to avoid so that we don't exceed our RDA....
I wonder if there's a Material Safety Data Sheet on paranoia...
