Re: Bombs & bomb threats in LA

and everyplace else all the news.answers FAQs are stored. What, precisely, is an acid bomb? Also note the standard blame-the-Internet (not, say, increased irritation with government after the Republicans failed to reduce it) rhetoric.
i'm not exactly sure what an acid bomb is, but according to my book, The Anarchist Cookbook, that I bought in 1972 (was the internet around back then?), there is a compound called "picric acid" that is "more powerful than TNT, but has some disadvantages". if you'd like the recipe, I'll be more than happy to mail you it through the US Postal system. Wouldn't want to give the Internet any more of a bad name for distributing subversive materials. There is also instructions on using an inverted vial of sulpheric acid, that will then eat thu the stopper at the top (bottom) of the vial. when the acid makes it thru, then is mixes with Potassium Chloride and causes a small explosion which sets off the larger explosion in the dynomite packed around it. just thot you'd like to know. thanks, conrad __________I_N_D_U_S_T_R_I_A_L___A_R_T_W_O_R_K_S__________ Conrad Walton http://www.industrial-artworks.com/ POB 2815, El Segundo, CA 90245 1-310-640-3365 ---------------------------------------------------------

I remember seeing an item on TV that had mentioned an acid bomb (it was a news report about a public access TV show that was showing people how to make bombs). In this example, some common chemicals were mixed together, tightly closed, and moments later an explosion occured. They never said the chemicals, for all I know it could have been lemon juice and baking soda in a sealed container, a la Dry Ice bomb... It didn't look like a bomb of mass destruction, more of a loud bang and a smallish explosion... Sean On Fri, 2 Aug 1996, Conrad Walton wrote:
