Snowshoe, cnn.com clip...one security expert said it could explode if a detonator was heated. it is possible to set off a blasting cap with heat...but using a match would be ridiculously clumsy and unreliable. you gotta be impressed by the accuracy of this intel... clip...Earlier this month, the Federal Aviation Administration issued a civil aviation security bulletin warning that the U.S. government had received information "that suggests the possibility of terrorist hijackings of airliners from either the U.S. or Europe." "We are concerned that hijackers may attempt to smuggle disassembled weapons on board an airliner by hiding weapon components within their shoes," read the December 11 advisory, which was distributed to airlines and airline security. in fact this intel is so dead on that we must not ignore any warnings. edit...the guy had a belgian passport....they have been a problem in the past. other terrorists have used belgian passports. unclewest
