    Dupont had a plastic used to make tennis shoes soles that becomes a super explosive if treated with caustic soda in an autoclavemaybe the shoes were de-vulcanized into a semtec simil (can only be detonated with a # 80 cap ,Quite stupid to do it with a match ! thank God ! he was not able to do it ! pound for pound is as potent as C4.... but less sensitive than TNT ...quite hard to detonate.

    It was either C4 or Plastique. They're not sure which it was yet, but it was military grade plastic putty explosive. Not easy to get, even harder to find.And I'm not talking about the s*it Dread claims he can make in his sink with mothballs and corn syrup.He just stuck a bunch of it in the heel and insole of his shoes (both of em, oddly) and rigged up a simple fuse that hung out the top of his shoe. He tried to light it but the match went out, the stewardess came over to yell at him because she thought he was trying to light a smoke, saw the fuse, screamed, and the other passengers administered a beatdown. They ended up stripping him down to his underwear, shooting him up with a massive dose of sedatives, and strapping him to the seat with their belts.If someone tried to blow up a plane I was on, they'd need to shoot ME up with tranks and strap me down to keep me from breaking the bastards arms and legs and knocking out all his teeth.One of the networks is reporting now that Reid apparently had recently converted to Islam, and had joined an Islamic militant movement but had quit because it wasnt militant enough.He obviously is either totally insane and just a random loose cannon with no particular alignment, or he is an Islamic militant of some sort. But you KNOW a guy is nuts if an Islamic movement is too passive for him.

    Back in Vietnam in '68 some of the guys would rool up a little ball of C4 set it on fire and stomp it and make quite a pop.But I don't know if that nut could stomp hard enough to make a large amount go off.

    Thank god the stupid SONOF%#*&^% did not have the brains to pull it off. Give him a fair trial THEN gut shoot him. Dont know about ya'll, but if you take "EXPLODING TENNIES" out of context and not think about the low life terroist(all of them),and what the outcome could have been...it is hard for me to keep a straight face! EXPLODING SHOES for christs sake! NEXT?? False teeth molded from the stuff?

    Well i dont like nitroclorobenzene ,too carcinogenic to play with but as a security consern it is imposible to prevent something explosive from being taken on board a plane the worst kind of explosives were developed quite long ago pertain to the binary class ,totaly innert ,undetectable one of the simplest is potasium pergammanate & glicerine alone they are quite inert mix in a closed container and BOOM! other is iodine crystals mix with pure ammonia you got one of the nastiest treacherous explosives to ever handle in your life ..Don't even try it ok! ...the thing is that from nitrificationof jeans to underware and cotton t shirts security means d**k to experts in this fields .. I rather use boats or trains ....Planes for now are a NO NO for me!

    Dont be afraid, 7mm.For Dread to mix up a bomb he'd first have to spell the ingredients right when he orders them.I feel better already.

    hey DREAD...been reading the ANARCHIST COOKBOOK? Found it on the net once,dwnld. it, printed it and read it...man some scary stuff in there! For me..I really like where all my fingers, face, hands etc. are located!one thing though that is usefull I found for starting a campfire with only wet wood is to be had was a mixture of iron oxide (rust) the gun show product thats offered is I think black oxide, same as above but purer, helps concoction burn hotter. Some aluminiun powder,and cant recall the name of it now, but defense plants use it and it is usually milled..HIGHLY FLAMABLE..like when it begins to burn it is scooped up an ran outside to allow it to burn itself out as it will burn thru concrete! Anyway the aluminum powder can be made cheaply and easly from scrap aluminium with a grinder,CAREFULL!! then add some oxide, and the ground(with grinder) CAREFULL! the metal I cant think of the name of,d%^#it! Mix all together, put about a 1/4 inch deep/half dollar size amount on anything,wet wood in my case. Now you need a high temp. striker,one that will generate a spark of about 1000 degrees F., a match wont work. Sporting good stores sell a survival "match" that is a striker that works. I found one at a Y2K show that was a solid bar about 3 inches long w/a pc. of hacksaw blade attached that came in a nylon case, perfect. After placing the mix on the wood, stand back as far as you can CAREFULL!As you strike...try not to look at the mix as it is REALLY..REALLY bright flash, as in you see only BRIGHT SPOTS FOR AWHILE, as in YOU CAN PROBABLY DAMAGE YOUR EYES..SO DONT LOOK AT IT AT THE TIME OF IGNITION! I THINK THIS STUFF BURNS AT AROUND 2-3000 DEGREES F. SO USE THE APPROPRIATE PRECAUTIONS!!! I have a "kit" of it I keep in my survival pack,for starting a fire in any conditions. You can mix this in varying ways to make it less hot,...or hotter. Had to use it once around a mountain lake after a boating accident where i went into the water. It had rained all day with a front that had dropped the temp to 40 degrees..and had soaked my stockpile of firewood. I had been there a week at the time ,by myself. I suffered a severe closed head injury among other bad nasty things (later hospitalized), and if i was not a seasoned out doors type person with the skills needed to survive such an ordeal, along with my all weather "firestarter", might very well not be around today. Its good stuff, if used in a safe and proper manner.....Not saying to anyone to try to make/or use it..but it helped to save my butt,and may again.MAGNESIUM! Thats the name of the material I couldn;t think of!....

    Its similar to a Flare composition its cheaper to buy a flare and ad magnesium powder and iron oxide to the mix ....I don't recomend the ANARCHIST COOKBOOK ,its quite easy to blow yourself up ,in many ways incomplete and disinforming formulas that can cause quite harm ...The original black ops Book is better (that is if you can get it) full 100 pages dedicated to transport sabotage ....I tell you...there is NO security to a well trained expert....and I know there are a lot out there, EX CIA eX NSA Commiting acts of treason by teaching terrorists to do this stuff ,many of OUR own people...trained by U.S. with U.S. MONEY$$$ and U.S. resources....from our hard earned Taxes.

    Judge it's time to put on your aluminum helmut and use your tuning forks to contact your controllers. They will tell you when to disintegrate.

    Has anyone said if there was a detonator in it or was he just trying to burn it with a fuse ?

    Let's just hope the FBI and BATF have enough sense to realize that it's just Dread that's a psycho, and the rest of the fine individuals on this board don't support Domestic Terrorism and Bomb-Making For Dummies.
