YOu got that right, Here in Alabama (Anniston) there is a old WW2 era weapons disposal factory that has had the libs going full nuts about. If these Iraq weapons are not WMD, you sure couldn't tell it here, they call them WMD and they are much much older stuff...

Here's a link to your article:

Not Iraq, but Anniston, Ala.

Quote for the article above that I linked...

Anniston is a vivid reminder that the weapons of mass destruction from the 20th century were a lot easier to make than they are to destroy.

Also, I am not sure of the specific munitions found in Iraq. I would think if they were the binary type of shells, the chemicals are kept separate and would not be subjected to the same type of degredation over time. Storage and handling were one of the reasons they were designed that way.
