coupla hundred thousand people dead last year from heart disease... 40,000 dead on the roads...

So what are acceptable losses? This head in the sand thing is getting annoying. Everyone might consider the potential of contaminating millions of pieces of mail and what it would mean.

The postal workers were exposed before the Senate and other sites, yet they took no precautions to treat the symptoms. How many people could be exposed and not know it? Loads and loads. There is a trail of spores everywhere the envelopes travel. All the mail in the machines is contaminated most likely.

The wake up call should not be anthrax. It should not even be the WTC events, horrible as they were.

This is like the gun control debate.

The wake up call is this: There are large numbers of people out there, most outside our borders, but admittedly some inside, who will cut your childs throat with a dull plastic butter knife.

If every American was immune to anthrax, it would not change that fact at all.
