There are, after all, only 366 different dates to pick from. Koinkydinks can and do happen!

Wow ! Somebody thinks there might have been an earlier anthrax scare-February or March 2003,and this is "proved" by citing FR links saying somebody thinks there might have been an earlier anthrax scare....

This,I guess,is what passes for "evidence".

Has anyone here considered the possibility this week's alarums and excursions might have been a Pentagon drill,designed to determine whether the screening devices work,and how well the response plans function in "real time" ?

If this was "only a drill",it was an event that had a powerful effect on the Stock Exchanges. A lot of stocks took a rapid tumble,and the markets posted losses all day.We're talking big money here !

All those who think the Pentagon would be inclined to step up and admit: "It was only a drill,sir" are invited to send me details of your bank accounts,credit cards,and other means by which I can strip you of your assets.

No kidding? Sheesh. Talk about stating the obvious. And I suppose you think that every Muslim in this country who might possibly mail some envelopes on behalf of the 911 hijackers was otherwise too busy to do them that favor? Use your head.

Well said. We get some real dunces on this site, that's for sure. Furthermore, somewhere out there is a 20th hijacker who was supposed to go on one of the planes but for some reason or another never boarded. Who is he and where is he right now? The government believes it was Zacarias Moussaoui, but it could easily have been someone else, like El-Shukrijumah.

Actually, that freeper ended up agreeing but had misunderstood my original post :-)

I hate it when that happens. LOL
