Jun. 2nd, 2006 11:10 pmAt last, I have thought of a scenario to serve as my entry in Bruce Schneier's famed Movie-Plot Threat Contest.
Having obtained an ex-USSR nuclear weapon, evil terrorists conceal it in a brightly-painted trailer containing a merry-go-round in Illinois, then take it on a cross-country rampage, stealing gasoline and rolling from state to state, confident in the knowledge that they won't be caught unless they do something dumb, like ramming a police car in West Virginia.

It could happen here.
