#2 And this morning, it has been announced that "Mrs. Anthrax" was caught. With a name such as that, do you think she gets invited to many dinner parties? And who gets to sit next to her?

#4 Is Mrs Anthrax related to Dr Germ, or are they the same woman?

#5 Jon, different women â not related. Mrs. Anthrax is Dr. Huda Salih Mahdi Ammash, the 5 of Hearts and Number 53 on the Hit Parade (and one of only two shown saluting). At one time she was head of the biological laboratories for Iraq's military, and has served as president of Iraqi's microbiology society and as a dean at the University of Baghdad. In 2001 she became the first and only woman elected to the âinner circleâ â the highest policymaking body in the Baath Party, the Regional Command.

âDr. Germâ aka âBug Ladyâ aka âToxic Tahaâ is Dr. Rihab Taha. Taha was head of Iraq's biological weapons program for seven years, until 1995, when she retired. On her watch two thousand liters of aflatoxin were produced (causes liver cancer.), as was gas gangrene, which causes skin to melt away. Her team also grew 19,000 liters of botulinum toxin, a food poison that swells the tongue and suffocates its victim. In February the BBC reported that UN weapons inspectors at one time discovered munitions filled with these agents dumped in a river, proving they had indeed been weaponised. While Dr. Taha herself is not on the list of most wanted, her husband, General Amer Mohammed Rashid was Number 47 â the 6 of Spades. He had been in charge of Iraq's missile development program, and was later appointed Minister of Oil. He surrendered on April 29. Dr. Germâs whereabouts are still unknown.
