The FBI yesterday warned the nation's utility companies to guard against possible contamination of water supplies by terrorists and asked U.S. military bases and Hollywood movie and television studios to increase security measures.

Federal authorities also prohibited indefinitely flights in the immediate vicinity of any major professional or collegiate sporting event.

If anyone does have a suspected or confirmed case of water supply poisoning by a bio agent, I strongly recommend that ozone be used to treat the water (assuming that it MUST be made potable due to lack of other supplies, which is a better defence). Unlike chlorine and chloramines, ozone is highly effective at deactivating virus' and spores (such as Anthrax). Chlorine is much less effective against these agents and is really only suitable for use against bacterial agents (which ozone is also extremely effective against).

I have a great deal of knowledge in this area and will be happy to share my expertise for free if anyone needs a more technical explanation or has design questions. Just email me.

How do you use ozone, and where and in what form do you get it? Probably others on this thread will be interested too.

Attacking a film studio doesn't really make sense to me. But I have a weird feeling that some other target in LA would be attractive. They have a huge aerospace industry concentrated around LAX.

Forget the Hollywood and TV Studio pukes; they got bodyguards.

Just double the guards on the utilities and water supplies.

To arms, to arms, the terrorists are coming!

America's Militia wants YOU!

Weekend alert summary.
FReeper report of middle eastern men asking for location of water plants.

Nine out of ten Americans will fight to keep George W. Bush in the white house, and Osama bin Laden out!

And Hollywood is the manifestation of it all.

Of course, all you say is correct. I considered that too. But still, a film studio seems a paltry target for these ambitious terrorists when great engineering firms are gathered close together near LAX. Maybe they have many targets.

my God then that means all the reproductive genocide clinics are a target too if what you said is true Hollywood/immorality/terrorist target.

No, the American people are.
Hollywood sells a product, this Nation wants it.

Ridiculous...you know better.
There are WAY more people behind the camera than in front of it.
Regular Americans, myself included.

One question I do think would be worthwile to address is... what about those ultraviolet light water sanitizer devices.

Also what is the risk to deep (100 foot or more) private wells?

The chemical plants are what scare me. In one valley within 20 miles we have about a dozen chemical plants with some really nasty stuff. I hope to God security is REALLY good here. It could be like World War ONE with gas around here.

Are you in California?

I pray like mad they don't try anything else, but if they must, let it be in the deep blue zone. It will turn to angry red quicker than litmus paper with muriatic acid on it. They think they have hornets on their tail now....

A praying friend of mine Emailed me the other day that she continues to have concerns about the nation's water supplies and disruption to the Internet through such things as damaging undersea fiber optic cables, etc. While there may not be a specific threat at this time, I can't imagine the dastardly terrorists haven't thought about such a thing.
