If so, someone didn't do their homework. Ricin is a lethal poison when injected into someone, but it's barely toxic as an inhaled agent, they were saying on the news this morning that someone would have to breathe in very large quantities of it to have any effect, but that if it was injected into someone, a very small amount is lethal.

Wasn't Ricin the poison that they used in the Japanese subway system to kill several people?

No. I believe that was Sarin.

Weird story. The attention is now being focused on a domestic pseudo-terrorist whose principal demand is... and I'm not kidding... trucking regulation reform. Words fail me.

All I know is it's probably Bill Clinton's fault, just like everything else.

Why can we get back to the good old days when truckers just raped and murdered runaways instead of being involved in stuff like this?
