Considering that we are concerned for all babies and a number of BF babies
are supp w/formula:

In a message dated 10/19/1 3:03:08 AM, Esther Gwrites:

<< Either they are planning to poison babies or they are using the formula as
a
medium for the anthrax? >> and includes a Wash Post article on formula theft:

so far this seems to be about making money, ......the primary goal of formula
theft does not seem to be harming babies who drink formula,  but the people
involved probably do not care if that is a collateral consequence, ...the
process of repackaging adulterated/diluted powder formula with less caloric
ingredients to increase volume/re-sales/$, certainly increases chances of
unintentional contamination with harmful ingredients, and a potential for
intentional contamination.

How this might relate to terrorism at this point may be to provide finance to
terrorist?, ...but I have not read anything suggesting that in the media, and
it seems they have more reliable $$ sources anyway.

If anthrax was put in powder formula several weeks ago, I think we would know
by now.

Nevertheless, I do agree with notifying the FBI and let them look into the
possibility of a relationship. Call the publized FBI tip line phone number or
ask phone information for the phone number.
