Pretty sure on the no T2. Dr. David Miller told me that it hasn't
been found in building materials. If I remember correctly, I think
Dr. David Straus did, too. Looks like that is what Dr. Thrasher is
also saying. People get mixed up. All T2 are tricothecenes, but
not all tricothecenes are T2. T2 were the tricothecenes that were
weaponized. So, it is not technically correct to say the mycotoxins
that were weaponized may be found in building materials. But it is
correct to say that the toxins that are known to be produced by
some molds that are found in buildings have been weaponized. So the question in my mind is Why, if these molds are known to be
found in buildings and they are known to produce these T2 toxins,
then why aren't these T2 toxins found in building materials? And
what is so special about these T2 toxins that they were the ones
chosen to be weaponized? If anyone knows the answer to this, its been bugging me for a long
time and I have never been able to get a clear answer. On 6/28/09, Deano wrote:
