I can't help but wonder if a disgruntled Demoncrat sent it since the anthrax mailings haven't nailed anyone yet and they are obsessing over unseating Bush.

My impression is that ricin is a lot easier to obtain/make, than anthrax.

In fact the weapons grade anthrax had to be made in a sophisticated lab, as in Iraq, vs. in a home lab.

I wonder how hard it is to make ricin in powder form. The ricin sent to Bush was in liquid form, also I read that the UN inspectors found 10 liters of ricin in Iraq in 1998, just before they were kicked out. So apparently Saddam had it in a liquid form -- at least at that time.

But the ricin sent to the Senate was in powder form.
