Just for the record, _The Anarchist's Cookbook_ is full of purposefully dangerous misinformation. It is written so that if you follow enough of its recipies, you *will* kill yourself.
No surprise - a book on bombmaking has so little to do with anarchism* that you'd expect the author to either be clueless or spreading disinformation, so there's no reason to expect his bomb-making info to be correct either. [*Ok, there have been a few anarchists who've thrown bombs, and anarchists who _like_ that sort of thing aren't going to pay much attention to the government's opinion on whether bombs ar cool, and if there are many chemically clueless bomb-loving anarchists, some of them _might_ get their books published before Darwin removes them from the meme pool, but the couple of books like that strike me as either deliberate disinformation, or else as particularly negligent attempts at making a fast buck from rebellious teenagers.] # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts@ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list or news, please Cc: me on replies.
