The whole thing was fishy at the time. I'm glad to see it brought up. Thank you for posting. Why do you think the anthrax attacks aren't brought up more often by the pro surveillance crowd? It's like they only want us to remember 9-11. If you poke around you may or may not find some fun and recent news about the U.S. Military mailing active anthrax spores to a bunch of people they shouldn't have.
