I email my Congressman. There is still the caveat that regular mail takes a long time to reach him - due to safety measures in place. The fact ricin was found in Frist's very own mailroom suggests (IMO) an inside job. Over the past couple of years, three people in the states of WI, WA and MN have been arrested for producing ricin. Ricin -- one of the world's deadliest toxins, twice as deadly as cobra venom -- is derived from the castor bean plant and is relatively easily made. It may be inhaled, ingested or injected. There is no known antidote. As for the anthrax letter-sender, he (or they) have never been found. Why not?
