I searched for this story but didn't find it.

The undiscovered letter here apparently was mailed before Oct. 24, since the mail facility was closed on that date. Could this be the Oct. 12 letter hypothesized in the Anthrax-Nimda Connection article?

I guess I should have put this on the Anthrax bump list.

No no, it's an isolated event: a bird drank from a stream, got anthrax, died in midair, got ingested by a jet engine, which exploded, completely tearing off a wing, vertical stabilizer, AND the other engine, and spreading anthrax through this mail facility. Nothing to see. Move along.

FOX NEWS Alert scroll: FBI:HAZMAT team entered 2 homes in Chester PA to search. No info given as to what they hoped to find..WARRANTS ARE SEALED.......hmmm

Daschle looked pretty sick today. Anthrax could be all over the place with cross contamination. When the first case of small pox surfaces bet it will be "not related". Smallpox is a curse; horrible stuff. Msnbc did a national geographic special on this the other night. Just unbelievable.

What if one bad guy on antibiotics, mailed an anthrax envelope to another bad guy on antibiotics, or even to himself. As long as the envelope wasn't lumpy or scattering visible dust, it would secretly contaminate the postal system en route and then conveniently disappear.

Just another case of the anthrax particles contaminating mail trays. These trays are used and reused, and if the anthrax powder managed to get sucked into the corrugation tubes, it will get puffed out all over the place every time someone places mail in the tray.

So far no one in the FBI has shown enough intellect to notice that post offices move mail in trays - mail pieces are not just toted around inside one at a time - which seems to be the FBI's template of analysis.
