“In a will he wrote last year, a few months before the Federal Bureau of Investigation focused the anthrax letters investigation on him, Dr. Ivins wrote of his wish to be cremated and have his ashes scattered. But fearing that his wife, Diane, and their two children might not honor the request, he came up with a novel way to enforce his demand: threatening to make a bequest to an organization he knew his wife opposed, Planned Parenthood........”

So will his ashes be distributed in suspicious letters to ABC news and Tom Daschle’s office?

“ax to grind”
No.

A torch to carry?
Perhaps.

Remember Hatfill?

“So will his ashes be distributed in suspicious letters to ABC news and Tom Daschle’s office?”

“The will states that if his wife—an anti-abortion activist and former president of the Frederick County (Maryland) Right to Life group—doesn’t burn his remains and scatter them to the four winds, about one-third of his estate will be donated to Planned Parenthood. Diabolical! There are few things sweeter than zombie emotional blackmail from the beyond. Just remember, though—the guy may have had a habit of terrorizing people with fine particles of dust, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the FBI was right.”
