Okay, who wants to bet this Ricin thing gets resolved quickly, but Anthrax...
after 9/11, that scare remains mysterious and spoooooooky!

Since opinion is so much more valuable than evidence now-a-days, my opinion on the Ricin poisoning in Las Vegas is:
Jilted lover gets kicked out of house, must spend extended stay in Extended Stay Motel, makes ricin, poisons the "jilter", and takes the first road heading south.

As for Anthrax...my opinion is pretty much in line with most Americans: Aliens from outer space who hate democrats and postal workers.

1. .....and occupy a certain family's many residences
Honestly, what we know about the anthrax mailings makes it clear they were an inside job with specific targets.

Ricin is not that hard to make if you've got access to a castor bean tree. My family had one in front of the house in NC. Dunno how well they do in Las Vegas.

2. Answer a question for me...
I was at work and the only www access i had was USA Today (don't blame me). The VERY FIRST article they had about this said that a guy came to the lobby with a package and said that he found it in his room and it wasn't his. THAT story has disappeared now as far as i can tell.

After that story disappeared, the story about a guy being in a coma for a day or so was there.

What's the story behind the FIRST story?

3. Answer - USAToday is written by Karl Rove's 19 y/o intern...
He gets a little "truth-y" sometimes. He has been thoroughly slapped around.
