Agree, but I think it's a hoax...
Without refrigiration bacteria in a dry form, dried on carrier (some kind of carbohydrate often used with silicon dioxide and magnesium siicate (talc)) would loose its activity very slowly, not fast enough to be ineffective in a matter of days or even weeks...

The lower the moisture content, the longer the bacteria can survive...
That is why yogurt powder at room temperature shelf stable for 6 month, while liquid yogurt would last a few days without a refrigeration...

After 911 who would ever think this? If they don't even know where they are, how could they possibly know what they are packing? It could be something that they don't even want to reveal. A hoax?

With thousdands of trucks entering this country daily, with unknown loads, I don't know how you could think this is a hoax, minutes after the report......Jezzz.

The report is minutes old and you say this? Do you not believe that if Sadam knows he is going down, he wouldn't give the nod to his fanitics to unleash something sinister. I mean real sinister.....

I fully believe at this point, anything goes......
