oy. Well, a) my favorite writer beat them to it and (it happens quite often, actually, he tells me that's why he blogs -- because even if people "borrow" his ideas, he is contributing something),
b) I'll have to ask him how he feels about being on the same side of a story as NPR...

Evidently that was a lot of anthrax in the letters....How did Ivins weaponize it (dry it)? Ive been told its not an easy thing to do

a) Why, probably, for the same or similar reason that many post here on FR.

b) He and NPR may be on the same "side" in this case, but I doubt that it's for the same reasons. After all, this is "Bush administration's" FBI and DoJ. NPR does have the capability of creating good investigative reports, like some "Frontline" episodes which underwent prior bias-ectomy.

Nice blog... I'd call it a Death by Harassment and Innuendo. Wonder if anyone (or a number of people) in FBI or DOJ is or will be claiming a "credit" for cracking the case and catching the "mass murderer". It's a sure resume enhancement, isn't it, at least in terms of "creativity"?
