I didn't think of this myself, but I think it's an interesting observation - whoever mailed the anthrax letters made an effort to reduce deaths by taping up the envelopes, and by putting a warning in the letters that they contained anthrax, and the recipient should take antibiotics. If the sender had wanted to cause maximum destruction, he/she would have dispersed it in an area with many people, e.g., the New York subway system, the Washington metro train system. I find that very curious now that I think about it. I read it on Free Republic, a very conservative web site - the writer suggested that the sender was really a liberal like the Unabomber, pretending to be conservative to evade detection. I find that amusing - do only liberals care? -g-
