Hand edited to remove terrorist attack and war related pages. I suppose my judgment could be questioned on some of the choices I've made, but I just wanted to give the gist of it. (For example, New York City might have been a popular topic anyway, but I removed it. And perhaps the interest in Religion and World War II is related to the attacks, but I left them in.)
