lcr,
About Tom Feeley.
Information Clearing House is a fairly serious, reliable and credible source so I am assuming Tom Feeley is as well.
That Truthseeker.co.uk is not a site I would credit similarly. It is the kind conspiracist rumor mill that describes itself quite forthrightly:
Behind the headlines - conspiracies, cover-ups, ancient mysteries and more. Real news and perspectives that you won't find in the mainstream media.
Perhaps the story is true, Perhaps not. I rather doubt it butI'll believe it if and when when it shows up on Tom's site.
He did have some trouble awhile back but no guns or Men In Black were involved.

I remember that day in November quite well. Oliver Stone? Eh. Great movie though. Fletcher Prouty was a nutbar, though.
If the mailbox in Princeton had anthrax spores presumably the car in which the mail was conveyed to Princeton might have some as well?

From an email in the document dump, Ivins indicates he went off the Special Immunization Program in the spring of 2001 and then re-started it on September 7. Yet, in the chart depicting after-hours access to the "hot suite", Ivins is reported to have accessed the suite after hours repeatedly in August, when he would have been most at risk from having gone off the program. It seems very likely his access to the suite would have been taken away when he went off the program. This stinks.

could you also explain to me how humans developing interests in sororities.
i'm thinking about joining one later - and now i dont know if i should!
Certainly, he could grow the spores, and anyone at Fort Detrick could have used the lyophilyser to dry them (It's simple. I used clean one on a regular basis).
Taking those dry spores, and reducing the particle size to a very small size, and then coating those particles to prevent clumping and to create a static charge to better disperse them, is a non trivial operation, and one for which there was neither expertise nor equipment at Fort Detrick.
What bothers me most about the current situation is the nagging thought that with Ivins' 'convenient' death we've learned all we're going to be allowed to know. At this point, I speculate the documents which have been released were intended to convince 51% of the population. And, as long as 51% of the population are convinced, Congress has no incentive to push the investigation further. That what sits beneath the documents which have been released is a good deal more egregious, and would be incriminating to ___?___ ... the government, perhaps. Who knows? And, all anyone is left with is speculation. The plan was never to provide conclusive proof - only to convince a majority of people that, Yes there are gaps, but we know enough to be satisfied the threat has been addressed, and the danger has passed. It's an indictment of the populace that this strategy is likely to succeed.
I can understand people wanting to wring the last ounce of information out of Ivins' corpse, to make him un-dead just a little bit longer, but what do people expect to find? It's his motive for ingesting whatever might have killed him that would be important to know, and no autopsy on his physical remains will tell us that.
And, gandhi, I don't even know what to make of the links you've posted. Short of buying a roll of the heavy duty Renoylds Wrap, I have no sense of how to respond. We seem to go from one fantastic set of circumstances to the next. There's no way a writer of thrillers could get ahead of this array of events.
There's something about the link at your name that is not working. I can't see the error off hand, but people should try

Hi Glenn,
Thanks for being so diligent about keeping our government institution's honest. Keep up the good work!
I'd just like to say, quickly, that while I agree with you that the FBI's work is largely shoddy and circumstantial, one thing seems certain... Ivins was not the kind of guy you want in control of substances that could drastically change society as we know it.
Thanks, bystander. Looks like I got a little more local and typed achievingourcounty for the name. Blogger says it available for anyone who wants it...

I agree with everything you said so I just let you say it again.
It smells, but as KO observed in his first rant on this a few days ago, two people came out of the Borden house alive and two didn't. There was a trial and books and experts have gone over the evidence with a fine tooth comb and to this day no one can be sure what happened in that house. We may never know. Sometimes you just don't know and never can know. Having said that, this stinks and there are far too many unanswered questions. I go from bungled incompetence to a nagging suspicion of something darker. That may be the final resolution we are all left with. To be fair, Truthseeker, upon further inspection, has attempted to clean up its act by running content by contributors like Kurt Nimmo and Wayne Madsen. Still out there in nutbar land but not as bad as the swill that rumor mill used to slop. But what gets me is that a person can read Glenn and read that. Parallel universes or even matter and anti-matter. It boggles the mind.
