NucleusG4 Master•Blaster Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 10444 Loc: Miami, Fl.	Here we go... Yesterday ricin was found laced on an envelope addressed to Mississippi Senator Roger Wicker... and now today one for President Obama. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/l...187f_story.html _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/

Jury still out. But you're right - just the possibility reminds us of bad times. _________________________ David (OFI)

The anthrax guy is dead. No worries from him any more. A friend of mine at CDC analyzed all the samples and did the DNA fingerprints to match it to our OWN bio-weapons strain. So it was an inside job. _________________________ David (OFI)

NucleusG4 Master•Blaster Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 10444 Loc: Miami, Fl.	The anthrax guy is dead? I never heard that or anything about them finding him. I'll have to do a bit of Googling now.... _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/

I'll ask my friend again the guys name... but he said the FBI was 99%+ sure it was him. NOT many have the security clearance to get to handle weapons grade anthrax spores.. the list is pretty damm short. Don't know why the fool thought he could get away with it.... in the end, he didn't. _________________________ David (OFI)
