"It's our brains again. We need to 'do something,' even if
that something doesn't make sense; even if it is ineffective.
And we need to do something directly related to the details of
the actual event."

"So instead of implementing effective, but more general, security
measures to reduce the risk of terrorism, we ban box cutters on
airplanes."

- - Bruce Schneier, writing in one of the best commentaries I think
he's ever written. Read the entire commentary on Wired's 'Security
Matters' here:
