I am not denying anything anything your experts
or others
have been saying
though they really haven’t said anything.
I just am waiting for precise information
as to how the anthrax was aerosolized
and inserted into the envelopes.
So far experts and FBI have provided zero information on this.
The fact that the FBI seems to be making up their story
and changing it
on the fly
doesn’t inspire confidence.
Saying it was put in solvent doesn’t do it for me.
I want precise details.
I know nothing about Speed Vacs or lyophilzers.
Hopefully the FBI will address not only the “false sample” claim, but this equipment issue. That is, what equipment he had and why they think a few hours of overtime sufficed if it took 1 hour to make one milliliter and there are 1000 milliters in 1 liter (such as was mailed). I hope the scientific communijty is persuaded by the FBI’s view of the probativeness of the mixed strain issue and inverted plasmid. That narrows the field to 8 isolates and 100 people with known access (and an indeterminate number of additional people who might have gained access surreptitiously).

It was the biggest biodefense project in history at the time. A man working closely with the 911 imam and Bin Laden’s sheik and recruting people to jihad was 15 feet from the leading anthrax scientist and the former deputy USAMRIID commander. But never mind, Ivins worked late after the US had been attacked and a man in a biohazard suit had been pictured on TIME. Oh, and then he became depressed when the FBI falsely accused him of submitting a false sample and was going to destroy his life imminently.

Dr. Ivins, his colleagues said, argued that al Qaeda was responsible. “He was very passionate about this,” former boss Jeffrey Adamovicz said. ...
