Title: Terrorist Plot
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on August 10, 2006, 07:51:06 PM
So we have heard the news about the big plot that was foiled.  Apparently some extremists planned to make bombs out of harmless liquid components.  Discuss.

Yes i heard about that on the news. These guys put liquids in containers, and one in a gatoraid bottle. He put the liquids in the bottom, so he could drink it.

ZV, did you mean like the chemicals sank to the bottom and the Gatorade stayed on top because the chemicals were denser?  Anyone know what they were using?  Was the old fertilizer and diesel fuel trick like those ******** used in Oklahoma?

Man, why do I have to be a stranger to the news!?

Still, I haven't heard this before. Could someone expand or is that all there is?

I believe that it was Nitroglycerin that was used.  Anyways, liquids aren't allowed to be brought on flights now, with the exclusion of baby forumula and medicine.
