I'm not saying we shouldn't be concerned when we're in highly populated or crowded areas and I thoroughly regret that it has come to the point where we can't go out and enjoy doing things that used to be fun whereas now erring oin the side of extreme caution takes that fun out of it, but from the picture, this guy just doesn't seem to fit any terrorist mold I ever saw (Chris, he doesn't look like any gas station attendant I've seen in NJ, either). My company hosts a number of "off shore" consultants from India and Pakistan. These guys and girls are generally pretty neat and clean cut, extreme pacificists, pretty much damn nice people, and because they're only here for a brief period, they are constantly packing as many as they can into their rental car and going to see whatever sites they can and they often come back with the statue of liberty hats or Niagara Falls disposable raincoats they bought or tales of shows or sporting events they had never seen before. Of course if you were that concerned, Mr. Sandman, you should still call it in, the Nassau Coliseum is on-line, too, you could probably email them your picture, but maybe this guy just couldn't get seats for everyone in one spot, or maybe he didn't really want to go at all, but went with his kids and that's who he was calling to check on. I just hate to see a thread like this turn into, "do not trust anyone a shade or two darker than you, speaking in their native tongue because they're all plotting terrorists,".
