Subject: six months since the anthrax attacks....

It's been about six months since someone
sent anthrax laden letters through the mail.  
I continue to find it disturbing that (1)
most of the evidence points to a domestic 
perpetrator who had access to and used US
military developed bioweapon technology and
(2) the FBI has apparently been unable to
make much headway in discovering who did it.
Here are some recent stories.
