"Spirochaetes" sounds like a Greek tragedy!

It looks remarkably similar to my list of biological warfare agents. :) (Ooops, now the FBI will be tracking you down.) Never heard of Actinomycoses, though!

Although, really, I have to ask what the likelihood is that someone will try to use rickettsias as a biological weapon (I just have this image of somebody releasing thousands of infected ticks... and nobody ever noticing). Of course, my degree is in English, not biology, so I don't really pretend to *know* how one might go about such a thing
