Some fumed silicas are extremely difficult to make, but at least two -- Aerosil and Cab-O-Sil -- are readily available and sold commercially in bulk. Either product, in theory, could be used to coat anthrax spores. Aerosil is based in Germany and Cab-O-Sil, in Boston. Both firms have offices around the world. Yipes... this is the 'magic additive' that threw so many people off? Jeez, I use this stuff as an additive in museum exhibit resins... people are surprised it could be used in the anthrax powdering process?

"Jeez, I use this stuff as an additive in museum exhibit resins..." For my education, could bentonite also be used in your particular application?

Well, more bad news... researchers can get anthrax any time they want. That's what the demons are talking about when they say we sold Iraq anthrax -- typical obsfucation. Weapons grade is another matter. I doubt we have sold any of that to anybody. Why would we?
