probably some kind of a gag. a normal party balloon inflated with helium is not going to be a good delivery system for a bio-weapon, suppose the wind currents take them out to sea? if they had a bio weapon, they could drive around houston spraying it from a pickup truck, why bother with filling balloons and taking them to gas stations and motels.

"why bother with filling balloons and taking them to gas stations and motels."

Balloons are innocuous in our culture and there was a reference (homeland security report or video or some such official heads up) to their usage on some post yesterday. It would take a very, very, very small amount of smallpox to cause a problem...no need to raise eyebrows spraying it from a vehicle. Two clusters of balloons could be bad news...hope and pray this doesn't turn out but as Rummy called for paranoids to find all the plots we are obligated to do our part ;)
