Anthrax in the vents is a rumor mmmmm---I don't think so. The gol-danged Speaker-of-the-freaking-House said it was in the vents!!! Judging by the panic in our office right now, they're probably sorry he said it and are trying to backtrack!!
I just talked to the House Administration Committee and they said it is NOT in the ventilation systems in either House or senate buildings. This is NOT an emeregency evacuation, everyone is working until 5:00 p.m. and then going home so the buildings can be swept. No other Congressional staff or visitors are being advised to be tested.
Pataki news conference starting now.........
