With fascination, I follow the developing story of the Las Vegas lodger, now hospitalized after being exposed to ricin.

The kind reader is told:
Officers who found the deadly poison ricin in a Las Vegas, Nevada, extended-stay hotel room also discovered firearms and an "anarchist-type textbook" with an entry about ricin bookmarked, police said Friday.
And there is no reason to not to believe he's a freelance cancer researcher, interested in socio-political affairs, protecting himself against packs of bandit scorpions.
We are assured
...that the discovery is not considered a terror incident "at this point."
Is there a reason I should not feel a bit "terrorized?" Perhaps not:
There was no word of a Koran in the room.
