The Bath, MI bombing was described as the worst case of domestic terrorism before the Oklahoma City bombing. The Bath bombing was committed by a lone nutcase.

Like I said, while the distinction may no longer apply, your Bath bombing would not qualify as "traditional" terrorism because it was conducted by a lone actor seeking revenge, and not a sponsored organization seeking to create havoc in order to further a political goal. Doesn't make the result any less catastrophic, though.
