...but the good news is that Osama and his buds don't have the chance to laugh at the hysteria over here because they're huddled up somewhere dodging ordnance.

We have a housekeeper who comes in every other Friday to clean up all the "mysterious powders" that occasionally accumulate around here.

Simple question: Doesn't it take a few DAYS for anthrax to make someone ill?

BREAKING NEWS: Mysterious powder found in downtown

---

Really? Did Michael Irvin go to Columbus, Ohio? ;-)

[Talcminer]

I'm in deep sh*t Mago! All I do day in and day out is make white powder. Last year I sold 155,000 tons of it. But Abduul isn't a customer name that I recognize }:-)

[tet68]

Probably some "Gold Bwond Powder".

I under stand the whole country is chaffing at the bit.

[The Wizard]

probably coke

Below is from the Kens5 website in San Antonio. I had heard about the envelope at the municipal building on the radio on the way home. I must admit I was startled to read about the business at Kelly USA, as that is where my husband works. I called down there, and he hasn't heard anything about it, of course he went in at 11am, hasn't left the building, and is still there. He leads such a wonderful cloistered work life of a programmer... sits in a freezing cold room, writing code w/headphones on.. laugh

I think that some nutcase is sending these things just to keep people on edge.

Investigators are dealing with two suspicious, but separate situations in San Antonio.
The first, involves several envelopes with a powdery substance delivered to Kelly USA.
At least three envelopes were discovered at Kelly USA. Four people complained about breathing problems.
Officials also are investigating a late afternoon discovering downtown. At least one envelope with a
possible picture and powdery substance was found upstairs from City Council chambers at the
Municipal Plaza Building. The FBI and Lackland HAZ-MAT crews remained on
the scene at Kelly USA. San Antonio fire and police departments and EMS and HAZ-MAT
crews were at both scenes. Officials could not determine if the two incidences were related.

If these were mailed by USPS or FedEx it should be possible to trace where they were mailed. If it is a hoax or an actual attack somewhere out there there will be a video tape of the perp mailing the package.

For all we know it could be a fellow giving another doctor some cocaine as a thank-you. It wouldn't surprise me. I think there is too much over reaction going on.

[Robert Lomax]

Wasn't Clinton just in Columbus? Maybe he misplaced a bag of his "powder."

[Tourist Guy]

Dang it.
I was planning on visiting the Terminal Tower.
I just like the name of that building...

[SwankyC]

Boy they are really cracking down on mail order cocaine.

[ClancyJ]

I bet the sales of cocaine will sure fall. The easiest way to get drugs to the people is through the drugs being shipped here from foreign countries with no control over its contents AND they pay for them. No danger for the terrorist.
