Hopefully it is more paranoia than large scale attack.

Sometimes we get some over-reaction to these things at other locations after something is found earlier. Remember the last time when they closed some building because of a spilled soda or something. Let's hope this is not another "real" case.

There have been many, many threads on this cluster of attacks. Can somebody give an overview: number of incidents, locations, real toxic agent or "suspicious", timing?

If all of these are real this is a truly serious, coordinated (but so-far impotent) attack.

Just remember what Komrad Kerry says: the threat of terroristic attack is vastly overrated!

Worrysome that they would do this at a hospital. This would be a great way to increase casualties in a real attack. Blow up a place, then make sure that no one can get to the hospital for treatment.

Breaking news doesn't get any fresher than this. Prayers for a happy ending.

Great reminder--another example of why Kerry is not a good choice.

How can this be ?? Kerry said the fear of terrorist attacks are way overblown.
