A friend of mine just EMailed me an idea that just popped out of his head. I wonder if there could be any truth to his reasoning?:

Being the thinker that I am, why are they not discussing whether or not that company that produces EVERY tabloid in this country prints those papers in that building. Wouldn't it make sense to put anthrax in that part of the plant and then have the paper company distribute anthrax to every supermarket and 7-11 in the nation. Instant distribution to millions. And you can get it by touching it.

I don't think so, but I guess it's possible. I'm not really sure how anthrax would take to being manufactured into paper. Probably not well, it is much happier in soil.

i think he means to just put it on the paper not work it into the paper, Anthrax being spores, it will be very easy to breatht them in as soon as you open the paper, and actually even if you touch the paper you will get contaminated

If that was the idea, you'd think they would have chosen a much more widely subscribed medium, such as the New York Times or something....just a thought.
