  Hi
  I used to make saltpeter and sugar rockets when I was a kid.
 To bad one can't get saltpeter anymore without signing your life away. 
 Hay, why not just make your own, using easily obtainable materials
 (e.g., horse manure, etc.)?  :-)
 
 Be careful now, you'll have the 'Homeland Security' folks shutting down all
the horse stables and impounding manure.
 
  Heeeeeyyyy!!!!  That's freakin' BRILLIANT!!!  Tons and tons of HorseShit
dumped in/around Herr Ash-Krofft and his unruly band of
much-darker-than-red shirted thug^H^H^H^H NuPatryuts(tm).
  Of course, having neither Humor, nor Brains, I'm afraid the irony would
be lost on them.
  Doesn't keep it from being a most wonderful idea; one that the Equine
Husbandry folks might welcome as well... free mucking!
  O well, this is hideously off topic.
  Sue me...
Cheers
John
