How long does it take for the sypmtoms of Ricin poisoning to show?

18-24 hours and ingested is the delivery method of choice with it.

Thanks to everyone for the speedy answers.

I'm guessing that a semi-competent terrorist would try to be sure to contaminate the water supply without leaving evidence of a break-in.

I may not be correct about the 48 hours.

When they were first talking about the British incident, they said it wouldn't be effective in water because it would be too diluted, and that inhalation or injection were the delivery methods of choice?

Google time, I guess....
