Half a ton of Ammonium Nitrate would have made for one hell of a bomb. We all saw what that shit can do... both in Bali and Oklahoma City. If it were to have gone off in a densely populated area like London.... :shock: i don't even want to think about it. Hooray for Scotland Yard!

Go you Limies. I wonder what they planed to use as a delievery device for half a ton of fertilizer?
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

They'd not need an articulated one because you could use a standard van and not even need a truck/lorry.

And we're not the ones that call public toilets "bathrooms" or taps "faucets". :P

Actually the proper term for pulbic toilets is "rest rooms" since there usually isn't a bath in any of them. :)

I have no answer for the faucet one.
