I don't like to joke about things like that, having been peripherally
involved with the Viscount crash into Botany Bay in 1960.  My best friend
at the time lost his father in that disaster (he was the pilot, Capt
Stephen Lindsay), and ever since then, my blood runs cold every time I see
another plane crash on the news.  I really feel for the poor bastards who
lose family members or friends in air disasters, and it's even worse when
terrorism is involved (if indeed that was the case this time).  What sort
of fucking cowards bomb aircraft filled with civilians, including women and
children anyway? 

Regards, Bill
