Do you mean like "No one ever anticipated that anyone would fly planes into buildings" ridiculous? In my mind there is very little difference between "Go brief Ashcroft and Rumsfeld" and "Go tell someone who gives a rats ass". Apparently some well connected people quit flying commercial aircraft, so a certain level of interest was generated. Unfortunately for the passengers on flight 93 and a couple of thousand people, you seem to have taken the "Adviser to the President" part of your title a lot more seriously than the "National Security" part. The FAA should have been on high alert.
