DENVER - Concern among members of the FBI’s Joint Terrorist Task Force has surfaced in Colorado. A semi-truck driving through the state on Thursday afternoon apparently triggered a nationwide alert going out to law enforcement agencies across the state Friday night.
Only a few specifics of the alert were released. Apparently, it stems from what happened at a Sinclair gas station in Byers around 1:30 p.m. Thursday. Byers is about 40 miles east of Denver on I-70.
Two men described as Middle Eastern in an 18-wheeler with a white tractor truck apparently tried to put unleaded gasoline into the truck. An attendant advised them it would not work and told them they needed to use diesel.
The men fueled up with the correct gas, paid in cash and left on Highway 36, which would connect them to I-80 in northeastern Colorado.
The truck has a Quebec, Canada, license plate number RS7-116. The name on the truck is Real Transport.
Authorities ran a check on the license plate and said it was clear, but it does not have a current registration.
The FBI sent out the alert shortly before 5 p.m. Friday. It advises law enforcement officers that if the semi is contacted to identify the occupants and determine if there is a current registration available.
If the FBI has any other reason to be worried about the semi, it's not saying.
There’s no confirmation that this is tied into any possible terrorism, but with the country on high alert, no one wants to take any chances.
Quebec is big. In area it's the biggest province in Canada. It's bigger than Alaska and thus bigger than any US state.
Could Quebec then be a 'FRENCH Islamic Colony'......?

About a year ago, the US installed radiation detectors at the US Canadian border. Before the detection system was fully operational it did detect radiation from an 18 wheeler truck passing through (at Detroit, I believe) but the alarm system did not go off. Authorities have been searching desperately for this truck ever since. (My source for this story is Andrew Krystal, who has contacts with CSIS (the Canadian 'CIA') and has reported frequently on this not well publicised story on WABC, New York)
Ewww... we always suspected there was something funny about the deck apes... They spent a little too much time in the Forward Hold...

Like I said in my previous post, Boric Acid is used primarily to create other boron compounds. If I were doing mischief I wouldn't bother with it. But your assertion that it has no practical uses is bald on the surface. These idiots can't figure out that they shouldn't pump unleaded into a diesel engine. However, it is possible that they are just drivers and wouldn't know squat about boric acid anyway. There is also no evidence that boric acid is the payload in the trailer. I was merely pointing out that there are boron compounds that can be easily produced that are dangerous at some level
LOL!
And we're supposed to be afraid of these bastards?
Yesterday as I traveled down I 81 south, all trucks were being stopped. There was a big electron ic sign "All trucks stop for Security Check"
The location is in Tennessee near the I 81/I 40 junction

This is the connection if there is one to be had.
I think we're trying to add 2 and 2 to make 5 but it keeps us on our toes.
If FReepers don't pick something apart and look at it from every conceivable angle before throwing out the waste and putting it back together in a recognizable form.....well...I quess they wouldn't be FReepers.;0)
