Observations and questions: 1. The U.S. Post Office is part of the government, last I heard; 2. Please identify who, where and when the CDC said it wasn't possible to get anthrax through a "sealed" envelope, and how you conclude that the government is attempting to falsely reassure the public; and 3. "Brentwood," not "Trentwood."

The public press and even the U.S. Senate has called the U.S. House of Representatives, "Wimps," for taking a 3-day break to test its offices, and the government has given numerous warnings and statements on things ranging from identification of unknown or questionable mail, to notifying the police, to identification and treatment of symptoms.
