One more quick thing. Do you recall the chicom reaction to our speed in taking Baghdad? I wonder if that was WRT defense. Otherwise, they have let the cat out of the bag WRT their offensive tactics.
PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) A letter containing white powder and a message claiming it was anthrax showed up in the mayors mail Wednesday, prompting authorities to lock down city offices and send people to a hospital for decontamination.
Georgette Johnson, press secretary for Mayor Willie Payne, said the letter was opened around midday Wednesday. It was unclear whether the letter had been mailed, Johnson said.
Officials said the powder probably wasnt anthrax, which killed five people in a string of 2001 mailings.
Right now we of course dont know what it is. Its alleged to be anthrax but of course thats part of the scare, Johnson said. About 99.9 percent of these are duds, but were taking all the precautionary measures to make sure everyones safe.
Pontiac police said the FBI was investigating.
Eight people inside and near the mayors office when the letter was opened were taken to Pontiac Osteopathic Hospital for decontamination.
Nobody had any symptoms of anything other than a little anxiety, Dr. Tressa Gardner said.
City offices were expected to remain closed Thursday.
Last thought while I'm still somewhat coherent and coordinated.
Helicopters == no
Water, beer, coke, etc trucks == yes
