It's not officially a crisis until CNN and FOX have theme music and a name for the incident.

Cordite is a type of gunpowder. If you've ever fired a modern centerfire firearm, you've smelled cordite.
Sounds like they may have used gunpowder as a kind of detonator or precursor charge - or tried to.

Definition:
Cordite N is used as a propellant in aircraft gun ammunition. It actually contains three main explosive components. These components are nitroguanidine, nitrocellulose, and nitroglycerin. Cordite N is very cool burning, with little smoke and no flash, and has no flash, and has a higher velocity or burning rate than Ballistite.

Now my question is how does that person know what cordite smells like?

Has the London Mayor come out in support of this latest bombing yet?

The British vocabulary is different than ours so might need an "interpretation" of sour. Leftover taboli in the backpack?

"WHY would they do it? Just to scare people without killing?"
Absolutely. This is the second time in as many weeks. There's an inevitable impact (who knows, at this time, just how significant the impact) on tourism, in particular. Most affected would be major airline carriers, hotels, restaurateurs, shop owners, etc.

Did I hear them right (on Fox)? Did they say they were going into one of the tunnels wearing chem-suits?
