No, if I had to guess, I'd say that this guy probably had no idea what he was 
stealing (to do so he
would have to have been following and "researching" the NASA dude) and instead 
broke into the car at
random to steal anything, hoping that he'd get something he could sell.  Maybe 
he thought there
would be a computer or an iPod or something in the bag.  I'd bet that the 
samples were thrown away
with disgust before the news later came out as to what they were.  Unless 
somewhere in the area,
someone just got the deal of a lifetime for a couple of grams of meth!
