| 0:00.0 | Hey, looks like we are live. Today is October 15th. It's one of the many, I guess, 20th anniversary |
| 0:10.4 | dates of the anthrax attacks, since of course, unlike 9-11, the anthrax attacks were spread out |
| 0:16.6 | over the course of several days, at least public announcements about them made over the course |

| 1:30.6 | And of course, a lot of you watching are probably familiar with my work on the anthrax attacks |
| 1:34.9 | last year. |
| 1:37.0 | I didn't really do much for the anniversary. |
| 1:41.1 | Aside from this video, where both Robbie and I will be sharing some |
