And I think that is an indication that we don't really know if we actually 'dodged the bullet'. What information that has been released smells very fishy, and I think that its probable that nowhere near the full story has been released- I am not complaining, very often secrecy is critical when trying to uncover the extent of a crime... and where Ricin is concerned you NEED to uncover the FULL extent as quickly as possible.

Ricin is fairly easy to make, and there have been several incidents where individuals have made it themselves for the purposes of suicide or murder, as a WMD it would seem that its not terribly effective- but it is something fairly easy for a lone individual to make that has the potential for harming or killing large numbers.

I think there is a LOT more to this story that we might not know for a while.
