Move America to the Moon

Somsak Pola (Letters, Feb 6) suggests that the American Embassy should warn Americans to stay out of Thailand because of a terrorist threat.

 

But I have a much better idea. I think the American government should warn Americans to stay out of America! Why should I think I’d be safer in New York City, where the 9/11 attack occurred, than in Thailand?
 Although I’m no fan of Republican presidential candidate Newt Ginrich, I love his idea of building colonies on the moon (especially if he volunteers to move there himself!). Then, if we move the entire country to the moon, we Americans will finally be safe from terrorism.
