There have been these repeated odd incidents since Sept 11 where planes drop weird stuff--powders--etc--on boats or towns. None of them are dangerous and nobody is prosecuted for a hoax or whatever. I don't think they're terrorists. Given what I know about our government and its practices in the past, I think we're actually testing stuff--seeing how certain aerosolized stuff spreads, seeing how towns and people react (panic?) etc. I know we've done this in the past and I believe we're doing it again: Suspicious Substance Dropped By Air on Clarksville in KY News/Current Events Source: WKRN.com Published: 11/16/2001 Author: WKRN.com Posted on 11/16/01 3:27 AM Pacific by KQQL Suspicious Substance Dropped By Air on Clarksville Breaking News: Substance Dropped on Clarksville Clarksville officials are investigating a white powdery substance allegedly dropped from airplanes in two subdivisions in the northern part of the city Thursday night. Officials have been able to rull out anthrax. They have also found out that the substance was not biological or chemical in nature. Hundreds of residents in two North Clarksville subdivisions, Northwind and Northpark, were told to stay in their homes until the suspicious substance could be identified. Hundreds of people in 180 homes were told to stay in their homes until officials could find out what the substance was. They were also told to turn off their heating and cooling systems. 101st Airborne Parkway in Clarksville was shutdown at 9pm. The area is a couple of miles from the Fort Campbell military base. The Red Cross set up shop in an elementary school nearby to aid with residents who were unable to get to their homes.
