That's a nice reaction. I was just sort of shocked. I mean, to hear the word 'shrapnel,' and then talk about glass shrapnel and then to hear glass shattering. It's after the fact, but in some neighborhoods, the man would have called the parents, at least. You're right, though, he'll feel guilty forever.

<<It's not so unusual, I think Ish knows how to build a bomb out of fertilizer. >>

Used to be a common practice here 30 years ago when farmers were blowing stumps out. Takes the energy from about a 1/4 stick to ignite it. Made for a cheap, safe explosive

<<My husband owns a copy of the Anarchist Cookbook, >>

I've often heard about that book but I've never seen a copy of it.
