- Not so on the Internet, where a handful of people have turned Amerithrax into an ongoing discussion.
- … bloggers have been filing Freedom of Information Act requests and working sources just as any experienced reporter would.

- Weinstein said the facts, or what he perceives as a lack thereof, infuriated him to the point of writing CASE CLOSED. He maintains a blog with the same name, trying to debunk the FBI case against Ivins.
- Weinstein, who splits his time between Key West, Fla., and Collioure, France, was once a congressional candidate, has degrees from Princeton and the Harvard Business School and retired in 2005 as the CEO of a biomedical research organization.
