MOAB

The morning it was tested a seismologist within 20-30 miles from the drop zone was interviewed by a reporter and showed a tracing of the disintegrating Colombia shuttle over Texas (significant needle movement) and the MOAB explosion (barely a ripple). It immediately made me suspicious that the thing failed to go off as planned. In searching fuel-air bombs, I found that there are basically two explosions one to scatter the fuel and then to ignite it... If it's a bunker buster, there would also be two one upon penetration and then the big one... The pre-blast hype also said the mushroom cloud would rise up to 10K feet....
