I couldn't tell from the article if smokeless powders were also wetted for safer shipping and storage in bulk quantities.

Right you are sir. It is the very stuff once used to propel 16" battleship shells to strike freedom into what remained of the hearts of our enemies.

I actually know how to manufacture the stuff at home but am far too wise to do so. Damn unstable stuff during the manufacturing process without the right equipment. Oh, and the stuff you make it from is dangerous in its own right but fortunately not explosive.
