Thanks JS. Please keep us updated if you can.

This is the 5th place (WH, Capitol Bldg, Phily, NY, Fl) where white powder/ricin has turned up.

Authorities say it's domestic, I don't believe them. I think it's yet another attack wave. I don't like the timing. Many people discounting Daleel & Co. I don't discount any threat. The ricin at the Cap turned up within the timeframe specified by Daleel & EOM. /tinfoil/

LINK EYED IN RICIN SENT TO FRIST AND W. HOUSE

By NILES LATHEM {{NY Post}}

February 5, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The deadly ricin found in Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's offices was on a letter-opening machine being used on mail from his constituents in Tennessee and could be geographically linked to an earlier White House scare, officials said yesterday.

After the tumult that followed Monday's discovery of poison in Frist's office, there was some good news yesterday: None of the workers potentially exposed seemed sick.

An intern in Frist's office fed a stack of letters into the automated machine Monday and left, officials said. When he returned, he saw a powdery substance that was later identified as ricin.

Officials were investigating whether the ricin sent to Frist was connected to two earlier ricin-contaminated missives - both of which had a Tennessee postmark.

The first was addressed to the White House and was intercepted in November. The second one was addressed to the federal Department of Transportation and discovered at a post office in Greenville, S.C., in October.

Both those letters were signed "Fallen Angel" and included gripes about pending federal trucking regulations and threats to "dump" more ricin.

Authorities are trying to figure out if "Fallen Angel" sent Frist the ricin.
