WASHINGTON -- The FBI has developed a new theory on a central mystery of the 2001 anthrax attacks after finding evidence in a Frederick, Md., pond that may suggest how an ingenious criminal could have packed deadly anthrax spores into envelopes without killing or sickening himself, sources close to the investigation said.

My thinking is is was all Atta and his most trusted fellow 911'ers, that they took a visit to their targets -- both DC and NYC on the way north, and in the not-immediate but close vicinity of the targets posted the letters, and then by conincidence and timing, being picked up on the day nobody was paying attention to their work, the letters got bottomed in those plastic bins, per mauwiya's theory. The letters then made it in into circulation per the postmarked dates.
I'm wondering, though if Atta personally handed sealed glassine bag(s) to a very trusted cell member in NJ, and that fellow (or even two) posted some of the later letters. In that variation Atta, himself, mails the AMI and early September letters and one of the Jeresy crew's men makes one or two mailings early October. I don't like that theory because it adds more people, yet the October letters are really troubling per the lost in some postal bin model
(I apologize for not remembering the exact spelling of Freeper mauwiya's handle.)
#1 Temperature control without the need for expensive systems. Even within the average home with central air significant temp fluctuations are normal. In a submerged environment temp fluctuations are gradual and minimized.
#2 Secrecy - How to perform something like this in a remote area without exposing ones self to risk of being caught. Hiding right out in the open so to speak. No 'Unabomber' cabin to find here.
Additionally, if properly planned and executed there is no reason to believe that the envelopes would get wet. That's the easy part in this whole thing.
Sounds to me like she's saying Saddam's still alive, and possibly under American management or even protection. It was a quote I had to read over several times.
Meanwhile the FBI continues to play their part, in the Hatfill kabuki.
Thanks. . .amazing; they are still showing footage of that pond. . .same story; and no real hurry apparently, to go a 'dredging'. . .
Hope someone was able to help you with images. . .have seen the pond; but don't know where. . .and I am heading out of town for now.
Perhaps you have since caught this 'never-ending-story by now on TV. . .
. . .and yes, muckraking surely seems to apply here. . .pun intended, no doubt!
