Several of you know, I work on a military base.  We have had increased security at the gates coming into the base since September 11.  I wouldn't expect us to have an Anthrax scare unless it came through the mail and the mail room is being especially cautious these days.



Well, last Wednesday, we evacuated our building for a little over an hour because someone discovered something on their phone that "wasn't there before lunch."  Though they determined almost immediately that it wasn't Anthrax, they haven't told us exactly what it was, either.  From the description given, it sounded to me like foundation makeup.  At least the weather was beautiful!  



They said that it was a good "drill" and they have reviewed the actions taken to come up with a better plan in the case of future threats.
