LSU-Baton Rouge has thousands of students from all over the world.

I am from Baton Rouge and went to LSU for a couple of years. For the microbiology final, you are given a Petri dish with an unknown bacterial culture that you have to identify. Mine was streptococcus aureus. Wonder if they ever use anthrax?

If today's reports pan out, Lundgren died of TRIPLE cross contamination. The Daschle letter contaminated a neighbors letter that somehow contaminated HER letter. Apparently they can tell this from the machines that examine bar codes. Now that is scary. We know these spores are hardy, and stick around for a while. But its like a domino effect, and how many could've been transferred? Yuck.
