I'm not happy to see this. I was alarmed at this part:

"The evidence that the anthrax spores were capable of becoming
airborne again offers proof that "the natural behavior of these
materials was altered," Weis said.
He explained that the particles were much smaller than naturally occurring anthrax
spores. Weis and his colleagues expected that the anthrax spores
"would clump together" and settle on various surfaces in the
office. These clumps of small anthrax spores would be unlikely to become
airborne again, he said."

Now, *that's* scary.
