Although the guy is old, my guess would be that the infected person may have been a terrorist trying to work with Anthrax.

And your guess is based upon nothing but the paranoia the government has instilled in you since 9/11. Stop being an alarmist. Isolated cases happen every year, and we were due for one.

Bull...the CDC says there have been 18 reported cases in the 20th century. Not exactly something that happens every day.

Apparently my guess was wrong. However, the point was that it was much more likely a terrorist than a victim of a terrorist action. So who is being alarmist?

A physician/expert on MSNBC tonight stated the last documented case of inhalation anthrax in the U.S was in 1976. This latest case is inhalation anthrax. You should be more careful with the accuracy of your information you post.
