we've been successfully hoaxed a lot here lately, wouldn't surprise me if the whole thing was just a fabricated, 'terra terra terra' alert to keep us all reminded that we are safer, yet not safe.

5. Instead it just reminded everyone
that the anthrax case was never solved.

These guys have a problem--they need another terrorist attack but
1) the economy will take a big hit, 2) the administration no longer has "kept us safe from further terrorist attacks" excuse, 3) people will start asking--you know--it's funny--no one was arrested after the last attack 4) a lot of sceptics out there, roaming around, looking for evidence. And this time, someone may flip.

6. Well, it obviously didn't work. It didn't register on my emotion meter
until about the sixth DU post, and just an hour later, they reported it was a false alarm. Means I, atleast, am getting enured to these warnings.
