QUICK!!!! Break out the BS Detector Goggles!

OK, attacks in London and Egypt, increased police checks here in NYC...

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh... what about the terror alerts?

You heard anything? I haven't heard anything.

Orange? Yellow? Teal? Mauve? Correct me if I'm wrong but nada.

So, what's up with that? (Semi-:sarcasm:)

3. Threat level is Orange in the Subway, Yellow when you get out.
I thought we were at Orange but I wanted to make sure so I went to the Homland Security WebSite and the Threat Advisory chart at the top right showed that was highlighted as Yellow.

So I clicked on the image and it took me to the following page:

<http://www.dhs.gov/dhspublic/display?theme=29>

which states:

Current Threat Level

July 21, 2005 - The United States government threat level remains at Code Orange--or High--for the mass transit portion of the transportation sector. This only includes regional and inter-city passenger rail, subways and metropolitan bus systems. Nationally, in other sectors, the threat level remains at Code Yellow—or Elevated.

There is not any specific, credible intelligence indicating an attack in the United States, but officials constantly evaluating both intelligence and protective measures and will take whatever actions are necessary.

Reminds me of a joke:

Knock Knock

Who's there?

Yellow

Yellow Who?

Knock Knock

Who's There?

Yellow

Yellow Who?

Knock Knock

Who's There?

Orange

Orange Who?

Orange you glad I didn't say Yellow.

(I changed Bannana to Yellow)
