If you get an envelope in the mail containing white powder, chances are, it's nothing to freak out about.
According to local officials, the Bayer Aspirin Company will be deploying a nationwide mass mailing ad campaign that seems a little "misguided."
Between May 20 and May 29, the Aspirin Company will be sending out 178,000 envelopes. Of those envelopes, 33,561 will contain a sample of Bayer Aspirin Crystals, which is a white powder.
Misguided? Definitely.
Attention-getting? Certainly.
Effective promotion? We shall see.
I would mention that if you get an envelope in the mail that you're unsure of, please call the authorities.

They should be prosecuted, if true.
