Not this again. A letter addressed to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has tested positive for the poison ricin, according to two sources who spoke to The New York Times. In addition, a similarly laced letter turned up at a Washington building where Mayors Against Illegal Guns is housed (Bloomberg helps finance and run the group). Bloomberg never received the correspondence, and there have been no reported illnesses resulting from the letters.
