If using the prilled nitrate that farmers and gardeners use for fertilizer, it is best to grind them up into a fine powder before use to insure reliable detonation and explosive performance.

That's what I was thinking of- seemed to recall (Anarchist Cookbok?) the necessity of grinding before mixing.

By the way- have you heard the rumor that the AC was as COINTELPRO operation, wherein the recipes were deliberately incorrect, the intention being to help Weathermen types to blow themselves up?

At any rate, I'm glad I put the disclaimer at the end of my post!

Yeah, that cookbook was one of the most traded files back in the BBS days maybe 10-11 years ago. I always wondered if anyone actually tried that stuff, and how many died trying.
