PANGLOSS IN CAMBRIDGE
The FBI launched a massive manhunt across the region yesterday for six people, four Chinese scientists and two Iraqis, said to be planning to detonate a "dirty bomb" in Boston, local public safety officials briefed on the threat said.
"The good news is that the most accessible radioactive material and the most bombs that you would imagine somebody using to disperse will have only modest impacts on human life."
