Attack of the killer-tasty tomatoes!


Not just a gardening accident... I have questions even if nobody else does. Why did the Portuguese speaking person want the stuff for in the first place? Why did he use an alias when buying the stuff? Why does he need the equivalent of a Timothy McVeigh fertilizer bomb? There were hints that the fertilizer was needed for a grow-op operation (I don't know about you but that must be one heck of large grow-op that would require that much fertilizer! Why was it being stored in 2 different residences? There are also laws about storage and handling this stuff even if somebody screwed up in selling him the stuff in the first place. A residential neighbourhood is NOT the place to store this stuff overnight... How come the stuff was sold in this quantity without more checks and balances? Why was this not reported to authorities for 4 days after the sale?

This story is NOT over, regardless of the impact on the G-20 summit.
