Re: how paranoid should one really be?

How paranoid depends on where you're visiting. I've been to places
like Mexico and China where I was very careful about theft.

China? Seemed one of the safest places in the world to me. You know that
thieves there can end up being executed if found out, don't you? No need to
be very careful there.

Mexico is a different story.

But there
would be no reason to walk around Japan or Switzerland with a
slashproof backpack.

100% ACK.
