It's also somewhat comforting to know that neither strand of the anthrax (Florida and NY varieties) is the product of genetic engineering. Naturally occurring bacteria are more treatable whereas as the cloned ones may be resistant to known antibiotics. Ibexx

That N anthrax scare is really blown up, it is cutaneous anthrax, quite innocuous. About 2000 cases per year are diagnosed yearly in the US FWIW Zeev, that is not true. There are less than five cases per year diagnosed in the United States. The 2000 you refer to is worldwide and has been dramatically increased over the last few years by outbreaks in Zimbabwe where thousands have been infected over the last few years. And, personally, I don't call an infection with a 10-20% mortality rate (sans treatment) innocuous. BWDIK. -dave
