    NYT article today

    The New York Times is following this case pretty closely. It does seem that each day the NYT leaks more information. It appears they focused on Ivins because of his personal quirks. I question why Ivins, who has a history of alcohol abuse, was still employed in anthrax facility. This is why he was in group counseling.

    Why are the FBI asking the survivors and relatives of dead victims to put together questions? How will that help the case. Seems pretty bizarre.
