While using it I often got a good whiff of the contents myself. I "smelled almonds" many times, but I'm still here. Not to be sarcastic, but I bet you didn't have a 200 gallon killing jar? I'm betting that in an industrial environment with such large quantities of cyanide, the previous statement probably rings true...

No, the truck disappeared several days ago. Today it was found, abandoned, with 9.5 tons of its 10 ton cyanide cargo missing.

Guess the news media are too busy trying to make hay of what Bush knew prior to 9/11 to care about the possibility of another terrorist attack in progress.
