Default Use A Teabag, Go To Prison

From reading the article, and reading a bit between
the lines, he apparently sent loose tea, not a tea bag.
Still there was an over-reaction, but loose tea is
not as obviously innocuous as a tea bag would be.
Dried substance in an envelope sent to a member of congress
is exactly how the anthrax incident occurred.
