Thanks, Peter. In addition to the Ames strain, if it is, there should be additional information as to milling. And, if we are focused on certain Eastern European labs, I wonder if we can pin them down.

I was asking, in my horribly opaque way, about salmonella and e. coli, because their effectiveness as terrorist targets seems to have been diluted by their prevalence in status quo.

P.S. I agree with you that this could be bad news for vegetarians.

P.P.S. Have we completely confused each other yet?

We have been told that one needs to inhale thousands of just the proper sized anthrax spores to contract inhalation anthrax. If that is the case how did the four that died inhale so many spores? Sure, this is a dumb question but am asking anyway.
