Would make for one helluva dirty bomb, though...

A dirty bomb is made from the left-over dirty isotopes from material that has previously undergone nuclear reactions. This would not make a helluva dirty bomb unless it was put into a nuclear reactor for some time.

So 20+ pounds of weapons grade plutonium or uranium won't make a dirty bomb ? please.
