I would doubt that Tennessee would be a target of terrorists, but who knows? Hopefully we can get some additional details on this story quickly.

The story was posted on F.R. last night and early this A.M......

A quick synopsis...The material found by the residents of a 180 home subdivision was determined by authorities to be harmless....Two airplanes were sighted in the area at that time....the governor of tennessee quarintined the area and the resident were either locked in their homes are prevented from entering while authorities checked...The FBI is also involved....

What was concerning was the location of of Clark Tennesse which is the location of Ft. Campbell, home of the 101st Airbourne.......reported that the subdivision "sprayed" was were a lot of their dependants live......

The all clear was given this A.M. but the authorities are still searching for the two planes, which were picked up by the AWACS.....

Come on Sam, comments like that dont breed hysteria! ;)

I have a friend here in North Florida who is an EMT and works for the hospital and fire department. He said its all day, every day that they get totally ludicrous calls about, "I saw whte powder her, I saw white powder there". He says its not jokes or pranks usually, is dimwits being scared by hysteria. For example, phone call came in with person saying, "There is white powder on the floor in the men's bathroom at the mall". Of course, instead of taking two minutes to discover that the maintenace crew had been working on the drywall, some idiot calls the authorities.
