When officers made entry after a standoff of about six hours, a chemical lab was found in the bathroom of the condo

Notice they don't say what the "lab" was set up to make. Actually it being in the bathroom, rather than the kitchen, makes it slightly less likely to be a bomb lab. Most of the easy to make stuff needs to be cooled as it's made, that would seem a bit easier in the kitchen, but of course it *could* be done in the bathroom as well.

No window, less likely to be detected? Tough to say. But, I think it's safe to say that there would have been a followup report on this, if there were to be any solid evidence to negate suspicion of a terrorist link, wouldn't you? I read that the London subway bombers transported theirs in coolers, on ice.

Actually in the case of the suicide in San Diego a later report stated that police found a large amount of ecstasy in the man's apartment. Presumably they waited to say what the lab was used for until THEIR labs had finished studying the pills they found. It was quite a large amount with a high street value. Sorry I don't have the link off-hand.
