...I know when fire is being observed and adjusted, not just being bracketed.

I posited previously, a dare. I'd like any of the naysayers to join me in an experiment. They can stand up to 250 feet away from me, and my stack of 20 GROSS (144x20= 2880!) bottle rockets.

They are "Black cats", and have a fairly even climb, and explosion. I have a bunch of friends that have some, too. They'll give me some more, when I run out. I can probably only hit you with every 20-30th one. They aren't guided, either. I just aim, and light.

I will fire some at you, and you just stand there. I'll even do it blindfolded, if a friend of mine can watch from the hill, and yell down to me!

How about if I substitute a potato cannon?

My dare is worth a C-note, if you'll even let me fire the first one. Don't try to fire on me, though.

Frankly, I'd blow you away before you got the first one lit! I'd use something a little stronger. It starts with .308, and ends with Winchester.

Good morning.
"My dare is worth a C-note, if you'll even let me fire the first one."

Only if I get to sneak up and shoot you in the butt as soon as the first one launches. Against the rules you say?

Rules are made to be broken and the Israelis are not sitting back accepting the punishment this time.

My spud gun is accurate to within a few feet at just over a hundred yards so I've got you ranged there, just as Israeli air power and 155s have Hezbollah ranged and are more accurate to boot. They just have to find the launchers and destroy them, as they are doing even as we write.
