I tried some stupid things as a teenager. Gunpowder with various oxidizers was a favorite. I was very lucky. I saw a friend blow his hand up good with a dry-ice bomb, and one friend shot a metal pipe in the air which went through an old lady's roof! But you are right; anyone who is intellegence impaired, given the wrong information is prone to hurt themself and others. - Mike White [Mail: mike.white@law.utah.edu - mwhite@eng.utah.edu] Visit my own webserver [http://fpc99.law.utah.edu/]
