I am planning to tap the eraser (from the chalk board) till there is a small cloud of white chalk dust and telling my audience that if this were Anthrax, I would be getting sick very fast and would probably be taking a few of them with me.

-OR-

A can of air sprayed in the general direction of my audience (since Anthrax spores are colourless, odourless, and tasteless). Then mentioning that if this were Anthrax....


What do you think? Any other alternatives?

that would probably be in bad taste, not to mention trouble with the law. Someone would take it as a prank and notify the police about it.

They will probably call the FBI and get you arrested.

Everyone is nervous. Don't do any silly demonstrations. Just read off your cuecards.

Just tell them that 1 trillion anthrax spores weigh only 1 gram, which is equivalent to 100 million lethal dosages.

Indeed. :D

anthrax.com is actually the official website of the band. But you probably knew that. ;)

Too late to change topic, danny. I am the first in line tommorow morning. :)

Factoids are usually boring, but this one is not too bad.
