I thought so

Do you happen to live near high tension lines or a nuclear power plant?

I always thought they used caffeine in diet pills?

Allow me to explain my error once again. For the sake of brevity I used the term primary incorrectly to reffer to the primary stumping charge said individual would be employing. It is a damnable error, but I have apologised, I should have taken the time to properly post. And as to TACC being used in Improvised devices, well that is what he was inquiring about. One of the beautiful traits of TACC, is that it doesn't require being compressed when loading your own caps, also, we weren't speaking of loading artillery rounds either, so dead pressing really wouldn't be much of an issue. And as to fulminates being favored in initiators, they have actually been replaced in most instances by lead azide or styphnate.

Once again allow me to apologise for my grievous error. It shall not happen again.

That's what I was wondering.

Well, it seems the nazis' were quite fond of recording their activities. Kind of hard to ignore the evidence.

that it would.

Cramer's rule

OK, here's the plan. Use an automobile ignition coil with an output of ~1.2 kv to charge several 1000 uf capacitors rated at 400 v dc, in series. Should be interesting. Any opinions on this?

As far as i remmember is the common antifreezer' date=' people say that it tastes sweet...

if i poison a person with coffee (strong flavor) and sugar melted with ethanediol does medics or criminalistics would know about it?...[/quote']

 

Yes.

Just buy a cheap piece from your local crackhead and do them in.

Isn't that molecule just called ethane-1,2-diol? Or is etilenglycol the nonstandard name? I don't remember anything about it being extremely toxic...

Or:1,2-dihydroxyethane, 1,2-ethanediol, EG, ethane-1,2-diol,

In my most humble opinion, this would be very effective against blunt trauma, but not so effective against ballistic projectiles. Maybe, maybe something with a large cross section and low velocity, but even then I wouldn't try it. And I certainly wouldn't attempt it with an arrow as in the original post, as this, and kevlar for that matter works by transferring force over a broad area. An arrow would be similar to my experiments with a bayonet and my flak jacket when i was overseas. Needless to say I ended up reimbursing uncle sam.

My God, someone thanked me...... That's a first. No problem man.

Ethylene glycol itself is non toxic. However, it is metabolised by alcohol dehydrogenase, forming glycoaldehyde, glycolate, glycolic acid, and glyoxylate. These four breakdown products are responsible for the tissue destruction (from calcium oxalate crystals) and metabolic toxicity (high anion gap metabolic acidosis, lactic acidosis, and hypocalcemia). Thank you, and good bye.

oh yeah, on a side note, they actually used ethylene glycol as a solvent for sulfa based medications in the 30's. And they say the FDA is a bad thing.

The lethal dose for a human is ~2 ounces. causes renal failure, nasty stuff.

Charles Babbage's analytical engine would blow the Athalon out of the water

This is truly amazing, all you need do is query the oracle and voila!!! It will answer you.

Magic Oracle of Knowledge

That's the first as far as i recall....

Methinks i see some bannage coming on....

Wow you guys are cruel!

I'm certainly convinced!

Question: why buy a first gen 64 bit processor when most software extant is 32?

Not that it matters, but perhaps someone may have some insight into the disparity in the standard of living between Sunni/Shiia/Kurd. And perhaps how the present state of affairs relate to the country being cobbled together from the British Mandate.... Looks like Yugoslavia all over again to me...
