    No disrespect but,

    Can anyone outside of the government - and I ask this earnestly - validate that people actually died in the post-911 mailing from 'actual' anthrax contact?

    Can we in the digital Salon really ever know what was swabbed from the floors of Congress or the Enquirer?

    I am not suggesting that people did not die in this case – but asking can we be so sure that a killer’s weapon is what 'they' say it is?

    Along this same vane can someone point me to a recent work of non fiction I have failed to remember about a somewhat famous magician from England (?) who I believe was the father of the fake battle tanks and other false perception tactics used to fool the Axis.
