OTOH, if this were a dry run for a terrorist act, with the intention of learning what the emergency response would be, I think I'd rather not give them any more information than necessary.

Not that I think that's what the logic was.

It's a good job I am a nice citizen and not a terrorist with a criminal mind, because I can always think up nasty things they could do. Causing terror wouldn't be that hard if you really thought about it.

Yes, 8 hours is a long time. What if Mercury was only the half of it? How did they know it was only mercury? Lots of questions, obviously..

I don't think we'll ever be prepared for any possible next thing, but the least you can do is deal with it a bit quicker than 8 hours later.. Wow.

I think the most effective way to deal with possible terrorism is to stop pissing the potential terrorists off by stealing their resources first, but what would I know? ;-)
