Spies

TCD is usually pretty good at covering current and compelling events taking place across the globe (see our award winning coverage of the oil spill). And though I have recently been absent from the blog and could have missed this, I don't think we've touched on the Russian spy case. Most of you know the story: 10 or so spies living among us trying to blend in with regular Americans, all Russian, one of them hot and a US/Russian spy swap on an Austrian air strip.

Well, today the FBI and Cambridge Police came out with some of the items seized following a sweep of the Cambridge house where two of the spies lived: Cellphones, laptops, memory sticks, disks, satellite computers, invisible ink (80s), documents, credit cards, fake ID's, pills and various forms of foreign currency. Basically your Jason Bourne starter kit. Then the FBI said they found a Dr. Pepper can with a fake lid and a Coke can with a fake bottom. I have no idea what those would be used for but I'm intrigued. Sounds like one of those spy-tech toys I used to play with back when I was 19 11 years old. Can one our Russian spy readers fill us in on what the fake cans (ha!) are used for? Thanks
