I predict that any packages Mr. Chopra finds on his doorstep in the near future to be more the flaming sort that require a good stomping.

Which reminds me of a story. Many moons ago, when I worked in the PMO (Pierre Trudeau's) as a correspondence officer, one day an envelope arrived from somewhere out west -- I neither remember nor want to now speculate which province -- that had a particularly squishy feel to it. It had passed the RCMP's screening, presumably because it was organic matter rather than mechanical or electrical (remember, there was no such thing as an electronic device in those days).
Well, we gathered around while the section chief opened the envelope. Sure enough -- inside was exactly what it smelled like, brown and squishy. Apparently the sender felt no note was necessary, but that the "media" was the message. There was just a neatly wrapped, cellophane package chock full of an unmistakable organic substance. (There were no "Ziploc" bags back then either, so the packaging was less than hermetically sealed and the contents had duly begun to decompose in the course of the envelope's journey through the mails, making it clear to every nose in the room what was inside).
