the other max thinks this is particularly interesting

Pfeh. Well, I guess he would.

Okay, so I moved this up from 11:23am because I added a bunch of links you might not want to miss.

Here's a long article about Hatfill and the anthrax attacks from 2003 for those of you who want to get to know about this more.

Sander Hicks says:
Hauer is [a] biological terrorism expert whose resume includes time at Science Applications International Corp (SAIC), a military contractor doing work in nuclear issues and psy-ops, and Bioport, manufacturer of the controversial anthrax vaccine.

Jerry Hauer and anthrax go way back. In May of 1998, he spoke at the Council on Foreign Relations on the topic of "Building a 'Biobomb': Terrorist Challenge." That evening Hauer co-presented on the topic
[with] Steven Hatfill. Yes, that Steven Hatfill, the one who later became the FBI’s prime suspect in the anthrax mailings. A year after their CFR presentations, Hatfill and Hauer would become coworkers at SAIC's Center for Counterterrorism Technology and Analysis.

Audio of Hicks interviewing Hauer....

Jerry nailed it... except for the overuse of the "nut jobs" stuff....

I particularly admire how he continually referred to Hatfill as "Hatfield". Sharp.
