The Seattle P-I — operating one floor above Newsvine Global Headquarters — just evacuated because of an Anthrax threat. Helicopters, cops, fire, and medics are all circling the building right now. All Viners safe and accounted for.

Looks like the FBI has caught the person responsible for this mass hoax-mailing. Who knows how many more of these envelopes are still in the mailstream, though.

Have you guys been torturing the neighbours again? Quick, while they're all out in the street, take over the building!

I, uh, came in late today.

The next time someone sends us anthrax, I promise to write an article.

I don't know, the Mexican police get heads delivered to them, Seattle P-I gets anthrax. I'm missing out on the wacky deliveries.
