In this form it would be inhaled by personnel. The amount necessary to cause death to a person inhaling the material is extremely small … There are no known methods of treatment for such a casualty … it will permeate a standard gas mask filter in quantities large enough to be extremely damaging."

Still believe what the Tee Vee says? Who owns that station? Same guys who own the MIC - why MSNBC (then primarily owned by MIC-contractor G.E. ) fired Donahue, ending their most popular show to get that "anti-war guy" off the airwaves.
