Wow!

These homeland security types are sharp.  Why just the other day I figured I
could load 100 pounds of fertilizer in the forward hatch and about 100
gallons of ammonia in the rear. I'd launch here in Victoria, paddle down the
coast, through Panama the Carib and up the east coast to Connecticut and
blow up a house.  I was working on an ignition system when I read Nick's
post. Now that they're on to me I'll revert back to plan A - trained shark
attacks.
