  1. Perhaps we should move away from the Merriam Webster definition of anarchy, and look more closely at the ideology of Mikhail Bakunin, as that would be more closely aligned with the original post. "Freedom is the absolute right of all adult men and women to seek permission for their actions only from their own conscience and reason, and to be determined in their actions only by their own will, and consequently to be responsible only to themselves, and then to the society to which they belong, but only insofar as they have made a free decision to belong to it."

  2. Well, do you have any idea how expensive good blasting caps and fuse are

    Now buy yourself some masking tape and lay a strip down sticky side up. Use smokeless powder from any cartridges handy to make a somewhat consistent powder train. Fold the sides of the tape over and viola' instant fuze.

     

    By the way, I've seen a formula of a "plastic high explosive" that's made with ammonium nitrate, nitromethane and denatured ethanol (+ optional aluminum powder) and should provide a 18,000fps explosion. I have doubts of it actually working, and since making it is pretty dangerous (heating the nitrate etc.) I'm probably going to leave it alone. Have you ever heard about or tried this formula, YT?

     

    Hope you plan on doing alot of stumping, ditching, or quarrying. You'd be better off using an AMFO slurry. 18,000 fps is going to give you crap for brisance. Let us compare this to TNT....22,600, or C4 at 26,400. Don't worry about heating the AN, you'll get a really nice buzz from the nitrous oxide released....now I don't recall right offhand, but 640 F is the temp where you start having bad things happen.

  3. ...I meant that you could electrically ignite the blasting cap, which would then explode the HE.

    I'll take this one YT. Ummm..... Yeah.....For the sake of argument, let's say you have a M7 non-electric blasting cap. Why on god's green earth wouldn't you just buy some damn fuze? Otherwise, invest in *gasp* electric blasting caps.

  4. If you add it to acid you will got something like stronger acid. Explosion may result if concentrated H2O2 gets in contact with organic compunds because it is very strong oxidiser but i do not know has it ever used for pyro stuff by anyone.

    Actually, the Germans used it and alcohol as fuel in the ME-163.
