How many more years do you guys think are going to go by before Lake stops pissing on all of us and telling us that it's raining? His strained leaps of credulity become tougher for me to swallow all the time.

What I've been saying for years was recently confirmed in a scientific report written by a top FBI scientist. If you want to read the report, you can do so by clicking HERE.

But I gather you view statements by the FBI as just part of the grand conspiracy to mislead the American public. Right?

Here's what FBI scientist Douglas Beecher wrote in that scientific, peer reviewed report:

Individuals familiar with the compositions of the powders in the letters have indicated that they were comprised simply of spores purified to different extents (6). However, a widely circulated misconception is that the spores were produced using additives and sophisticated engineering supposedly akin to military weapon production. This idea is usually the basis for implying that the powders were inordinately dangerous compared to spores alone (3, 6, 12; J. Kelly, Washington Times, 21 October 2003; G. Gugliotta and G. Matsumoto, The Washington Post, 28 October 2002). The persistent credence given to this impression fosters erroneous preconceptions, which may misguide research and preparedness efforts and generally detract from the magnitude of hazards posed by simple spore preparations.

That report references an article in Science magazine as it's source. It does NOT give any data, nor does it reference insiders. As it stands, the FBI paper is quite meaningless.
