at some point, when you have intelligence that covers every possible scenario, in reality, what do you really have?

Someone, somewhere, will try to do something sometime. Of this I am somewhat certain.

Excessive perfume can be a toxic weapon. I wish more women would get a clue: light perfume that is barely perceptible can be an attractive under-statement. Loud perfume that shouts, "HELLO SAILOR! I WAS HERE 30 MINUTES AGO!" is only noxious. I have been on elevators that someone with noxious perfume had used a few minutes before, and the chemicals made my eyes sting. A woman down the hallway where I work sometimes uses this strong perfume -- one can smell it literally 50 feet away -- it smells exactly like an insecticide. There is this brand of insect spray of the type one uses to fog a room and leave it for several hours. The perfume she uses smells exactly like this bug poison, only the perfume is stronger. I don't know how anyone can use strong perfume like that without getting sick.

I have asthma and the worst thing for it is perfume. Most perfumes are petroleum by-products, and as far as I know, many pesticides are too. There you have it.

Part of me thinks that the bad guys are running the good guys all over the place to distract them from what is really going on.

Ditto. A guy walked up behind me at the VP a few nights ago. He had on so much cologne that he sent be into an attack. Between gasps, I told him it was his cologne. He gave me all kinds of dirty looks because he made me sick.

What was the gas that Putin used in the hostage situation? What did that stuff smell like? It sure seemed effective in eliminating the problem, uh, and some of, uh, alot of the hostages.

Walk toward fresh air, away from confined areas, and upwind of smells. These are agents of mass terror not agent of mass destruction.

"Smells may range from fruity/flowery to sharp/pungent, garlic/horseradish-like, bitter almonds, peach kernels and new-mown grass/hay," according to the FBI advisory.

That's not quite right. If you can smell the stuff, you're clearly ALREADY downwind of it and if you try to walk upwind of it directly, you'll be walking THROUGH it. The best plan would be to run, not walk, directly orthoganal to the direction of the wind until you CAN'T smell it, and then try to get upwind.

One thing that helps my asthma is everything in our house is non-scented - dish detergent, laundery detergent, shampoo,cleaners, etc. It's amazing how much it's helped. No air fresheners, little trees hanging from the rear view mirror, etc.
Also having eucalyptus oil around - I put a drop on collar or shirt neck and breathe the smell - it can help clear the bronchials right up.

The scent from the eucalyptus doesn't bother you? Potpourri makes my sinuses hurt so I'm skeptical that it would help me. However, I may try that when I'm feel like experimenting.

hydrogen cyanide

Interesting how some of the 9/11 killers were from Delray Beach, Fl and how anthrax was used in the Globe building in Boca Raton about a mile from the Delray Beach border and that several years earlier, the Feds busted a group supplying cyanide to Iraq out of an office warehouse about a mile North East of the Globe building right on the border of Delray Beach and Boca Raton.

"Smells may range from fruity/flowery to sharp/pungent, garlic/horseradish-like, bitter almonds, peach kernels and new-mown grass/hay," according to the FBI advisory." Smells like any subway car in NYC on any day of the week. How can anyone tell the difference!

Most potpouris are made of some natural plant materials plus artificial perfumes added. I can't stand them either (Choke...Gag...Gack). They also usually have strange dyes added.

But pure essential oils (the bottle has to say natural or pure) are made out of plant material only, and most not only don't bother me but many help. Good ones smell like you're out in the forest - eucalyptus, spruce, fir and pine. Nautral food stores are the place to get them. I use them in a very basic way - mostly sprinkle them on the woodstove! Or just put a drop on a shirt. I find they really help open up breathing passages, sinuses, and also they kill germs so they're handy to have in the air anyway.
If you have more questions about their use you can FReepmail me as I have studied them a bit.
