Possibly...NYC's tourism skyrocketed after 9/11.  Either way, the worlds markets have been very strong, and I have to believe that alot of it has to do with the tenacity of the typical englishman.  Stiff upper lip, etc.

I'm impressed, they've actually got the Union flag the right way round!  (50/50 chance of getting it wrong way round and even many Brit's get it wrong way round too!)

Beetle asked:

Ravells - I may have asked you before - do you work near Leadenhall Market? Was that area affected?

I work about 10 mins walk away from Leadenhall which was unaffected. The bombs in the city went off at Aldgate and Moorgate.
