This Stuff Is Scary (Modern Binary Explosions)
 
Modern Binary Explosives :: Science Videos

With Al Qaida once again saying they are planning an even bigger attack, just seeing this video makes me think twice about flying. Seriously.

At some point our government will have to realize the risk of these evolving threats and start going less for show and more for substance. Unfortunately, I think our gov't has problems placing more emphasis on actual risk prevention than on the latest PC trend.

Watermelons of the world . . . BEWARE!

Planes should be safe enough with the mighty TSA on the case though :)

The scary music is more worrisome to me. I've blown up many watermelons with Black Cats and M-80's. Not too hard to blow up a watermelon. They need to put a couple of ounces of that stuff in a pipe, strap it to an old Ford Fiesta, light it up, then send it over a cliff. That might be impressive, but the watermelon, not so much. I guess it is kinda scary that you could conceal it so easily, I'll give'm that.

Oh, Great!
 
Now the TSA won't let us through security if we're carrying a pen OR a watermelon!
