This message brought to you as a public
service by the Office of Homeland Security,
which reminds you: "shut your big subversive mouth
or Else."
In the book Prometheus (sp?) they load a large
freighter with
Ammonium Nitrade (with the right additives) then stack the deck with
tons of Magnesium ingots and then expode the whole thing in the port in
the capital of a South American country. The effect is like that of an
atomic bomb (anybody remember what happened in Texas City?) PLUS the
flaming magnesium fell for miles outside the blast area and created
thousands of fires that combine to form a fire storm. (Remember Toyko in
early 1945? The fire storms killed more people than both of the atomic
bombs.)
You guys had better be careful discussing all these terror attack
scenarios in public. Pretty soon we'll have Asscroft breathing down our
necks.
(I'm being half serious.)
