I don't know if anyone has brought this up yet, but how many suspicious looking envelopes do you open at work? I don't know if they still have the envelope ( they could have filed it ) but no return address is one possible red flag. I never open any mail that looks odd. Of course, I'm sure "The National Enquirer" doesn't have this luxury being that plenty of their incoming correspondence probably shows up in odd envelopes. Just be careful.

As far as I am concerned you should be banned for the way you acted tonight. Your hysterical response was uncalled for. We welcome new comers to FR. When you calm down from your personal experience then maybe someone will be able to talk to you. Until then I don't care to respond to your little temper tantrum. You are not doing anyone any good in your present state.

Why is the Associated Press too scared to say that the intern was of Middle Eastern descent? Newsweek said it.

God help them if they sprinkled this stuff around the US. We'd nuke Iraq for sure.

Dr Thomas Ryan is answering question live on Cannel 9 here in No Va. He said all preliminary testing at Prince William Hospital has resulted in negative results for anthrax. It sounds as if they were being cautious. The patient presented himself as suffering from confusion. Gram staining and flourescent examination showed negative for anthrax. Cat Scan normal. Lumbar puncrure normal, Slightly elevated white cell count which might indicate a slight viral infection. He works for AMI, a company associated with the Sun operation in Boca Raton. Man did not travel to Florida. Lives locally and works in Fairfax.

Three cases. Looks like Osama needed to refine his delivery system.
To: newzjunkey, WMAL says "NO" anthrax
WMAL AM 630 in DC just listened in on what sounded like a press conference and reported that this is NOT an anthrax case.

Fox News just announced that the person in Virgina tested Negative for Anthrax.
To: newzjunkey
He and other health officials said there was no reason for alarm.The hilarious quote of the day.
To: newzjunkey
The state government was told that the Virginia victim had either been an employee of or a contractor for The Sun,... Or a summer intern, perhaps? That would be appropriate.

Question: Isn't it possible to test positive for Anthrax without actually having the full blown disease? It seems to me if you inhale spores which are too big (the spores have to be of a particular size to diffuse into the aveoli), your immune system would come in and sweep out what spores WERE in the lungs, and then sure, you'd test positive, even though you wouldn't actually develop the specific fatal condition. Is it possible you could develop an immunity by inhaling large spores, and letting your immune system "key" itself up? (stupid idea, I know, but you never know...)
If this is the best delivery method the terrorists can come up with, I am not exactly impressed. Not surprised though. The Aum Freakycult in Japan tried widespread attacks with Anthrax MULTIPLE times in CLOSED subway cars, and none of them worked. NO ONE got sick. It's why they got desperate and used Sarin finally....and these guys had a lot of resources and quiet time to themselves before '95.
Still, I hope they manage to approve and build up large stockpiles of that newly discovered Anthrax antitoxin in the near future...just in case...

--I asked this yesterday, but didn't see if there was an answer in the threads. Have there been any reports if that building in florida is the actual place that prints the various newspapers and magazines and ships them out? I think it's just a business office building, but I don't know that for a fact. I would think the actual paper being infected somehow might be a possible vector the terrs might try.

Call your congress man and ask him to inform few very obvious regimes that if they don’t disclose in 24 hrs everything they know about this bio threat and attack we are in now.
We will nuke them in 48 hrs, for every anthrax case one nuke on a capital. I’m dam serious, I’m not afraid dying from that but I’m afraid our government will not revenge
