Yes, just heard the same thing on Fox News. Didn't hear about the skin anthrax though. Fox said it was an employee of 30 Rockefeller Center and he/she worked on the 3rd floor.

Well something is going on and it looks like the US media is being targeted by "someone". Giuliani just disclosed that the NY Times also received a letter with a "powdery substance" that is in the process of being tested for anthrax.
So...are these cases related to terrorism? Or some nutcase taking advantage of the "anxiety" that has ensued since September 11th? Seems awfully coincidental to me.

I heard that the NYT powdery substance had tested negative for anthrax.
Any nutcase could send a bogus powdery substance, stuff like that isn't surprising. But fooling around with real anthrax is scary, someone would have to be much more deadly serious than your run of the mill nutcase to be willing to expose himself to that kind of danger to further his agenda.
So I'd say the real anthrax is terrorism-related, and the hoax stuff may or may not be.

That is much too abreviated for us to know what you mean tiggress. It is hard enough with a chat format and not seeing or hearing the person. Expound and expand.....

Barbkeith: If a white liquid substance fell on my house I would not be thinking anthrax, mile high club meeting maybe but not anthrax.
