"Sarin, a colorless and odorless gas, has a lethal dose of 0.5 milligram for an adult. It is 26 times more deadly than cyanide gas and is 20 times more lethal than potassium cyanide. Just 0.01 milligram per kilogram of body weight a pinprick sized droplet will kill a human. The vapor is slightly heavier than air, so it hovers close to the ground. Under wet and humid weather conditions sarin degrades swiftly, but as the temperature rises up to a certain point, sarin’s lethal duration increases, despite the humidity."

Jeez Indy, I don't like that "Cape Canaveral" in the link you provided. Not one bit. WTF is that all about he said, sitting not that far downwind? Do we have our own Plum Island here in Florida? Or is this just how rumors get started? :)
