I'm sure that you've all noticed the drop in email volume recently.... Well you 
haven't been the only ones.  Since our little discussion on tennis ball 
cannons, we've been monitored by high ranking officials.  Now the media is 
noticing the drop in our email volume too.

Ominous drop in 'chatter' by terrorists 
WASHINGTON

A DROP in so-called 'chatter' among suspected terrorists is raising concern 
among United States counter-terrorism officials, who noticed a similar fall in 
intercepted communications prior to the Sept 11 terror attacks.

US government sources told CNN that security experts are still trying to fathom 
the reason for the troubling ebb in recent days.

While there have been several similar quiet episodes in the past, the 'chatter' 
continued as before even after the mid-July arrest of key Al-Qaeda suspect 
Mohammad Naeem Noor Khan by Pakistani security forces, which was announced last 
week. 

The fall-off in chatter comes at a sensitive time in the war on terror. 
Information obtained in the Pakistani crackdown on Al-Qaeda pointed to a 
possible attack on US financial institutions as well as British targets.

It triggered a heightened security alert in the United States and prompted 
anti-terrorist sweeps in Britain, which netted over a dozen suspects.
