As previousely posted Anthrax can be treated very effectively. It is actually pretty hard to contract. Our Fire Dept. Haz Mat unit averages about 10 calls a month, we have already ran 46 calls in the past week. hysteria at its finest. One of the funnier ones was a lady stating that a "granular" substance was found on a magazine she just recieved. A full HAZ MAT response which includes 2 engines, haz mat unit, truck, ambulance and Battalion Chief responded. To make a long story short, she had spilled salt on her coffee table prior to sitting the magazine down. One of my favorite syaings is "Common sense...is not so common".
