Hi carranza2, I knew I had left out a or two name in my first post after interlude! <<Can you imagine heavy 20mm rounds coming in at the rate of 100 per second? ... I don't think anyone except the military and the Iraqi army has any idea of the lethality of the upcoming conflict>>

I really advise all the kids at heart on this thread to try Unreal Tournament or Quake III - Team Arena, or Tribes 2, and play them for points, on line against real live thinking adversaries with lots of munition, but play them in "Last Man Standing Mode" w/ one life, none to spare. Then you understand fear, safely.

Chugs, Jay

"These are bombs that spread gasoline or other vapor over a particular area, then detonate it. Much, much more powerful than conventional explosives. I think they're available now..." - They certainly are. They are typically called "fuel-air explosives" (FAEs) in the American press.
