I'M DREAMING OF AN ORANGE CHRISTMAS

[Emu]

So far though it seems that all of these terrorist threats have been based around the holidays, specifically the big ones, Christmas and Thanksgiving, as well as midsummer, when everyone does their travelling. I just wonder how big the terrorist threat REALLY is around these points, because I would think that since everybody is out and about, terrorist activitiy would be pretty conspicuous. After all, 9/11 was in the middle of September, after the summer weather had passed, but way before any big travel months. You'd think they'd raise the terror alerts at times when it'd be least likely to be noticed.
