Not to be alarmist, but... I have 2 questions:
1) Are the CDC people absolutely sure that anthrax in all its variants is NOT contagious?
2) What is the "FRF" - - Free Republic Feedback - - on the so-called "World Trade Center Cough" which FOX was going on about last evening?
This is the only one I can take a shot at. IMHO after breathing the smoke from the towers for what 3 weeks now? My guess is that NY is having one giant asthma attack or at least suffering from irratated airways.
