At some point solutions become irrelevant and the only option is search and rescue. Some things in motion are hard to stop. Trains need hundreds of yards to stop, super tankers need several miles and wars need an incredible death toll.

To have discussed these matters 10 years ago would have been countered with "gentlemen, we must not have a germ warfare gap". To discuss it today is grim and is considered by some playing into the hands of the fear factor. We got here in part by ignoring the scope of military plans for the world. To stop it now is impossible. We are all potential collateral damage. We may be like the Statue of Liberty with a super tanker at full speed on a collision course merely a mile away.

A scenario prepared by ABC suggests 50,000 dead from one bio attack in one city. Late last night ABC had a town meeting moderated by Ted Koppel on bio terrorism. The leading experts all painted a dire picture. I suggest you go to ABC.com for a transcript. Not for solutions but for advice.

The next attack I presume will be in CA. This is based on intercepted information in Russia. The phrase America will be stabbed in the back may prove telling.
