Danziger brings it big time, all the time.

Deserves a Presidential Medal of Freedom, or some other worthwhile thingy, like maybe a Pulitzer.

This is not entirely true.

The Ricin mailer was tracked using Mail scanners.

According to FBI Agent James Spiropoulos, investigators accessed a Postal Service computer system that “incorporates a Mail Isolation Control and Tracking (MICT) program which photographs and captures an image of every mail piece that is processed.” Agents were able to obtain front and back images of about 20 mail pieces that had been processed “immediately before the mail piece addressed to Mayor Bloomberg.”

Actually, it'd be FIFTY cents well spent (which I imagine it will be before too much longer, and when it does, I'll have no problem with it). I trust the USPS one hell of a lot more than I trust any of the alphabet agencies that seem to be sprouting up like weeds.

After my alarm clock on my phone went off 30 minutes early even though I didn't set it for that time. I figured out why, it was because the NSA woke me up and told me to take a shower and eat breakfast before I leave.
