Re: OT: Isn\'t this ridiculous??
Hmmm...don't you love the world of Ebay?
A quick check shows that you could obtain the materials to create about 5 pounds of black powder for well under $100 US (not including shipping, which would likely be high). Admittedly, black powder isn't by any means a powerful explosive by today's standards, but 5 pounds would be quite sufficient to create a fairly large hole in the ground. And other, high-order explosives (C4, RDX, etc) wouldn't take too much more in the way of materials nor knowledge to create for an low price as well. Kinda scary, actually. Good thing bomb-making doesn't even cross most people's minds.
