- I've seen both the graphical network news footage of shot-up
- mini-busses and also the State Department's Travel Advisories regarding
- Egypt posted here. I am contemplating a trip in February or March, and
- these reports of fundamentalist extremists have certainly captured my
- attention. In my wife's case, they've gotten her downright scared to
- go. If you have thoughts to share on this subject, please email them
- to me and perhaps post them for others. I have a few weeks in which to
- make up my mind before forfeiting more than the deposits.
