There was much rejoicing when heo muyashi dan said this:
A few of you showed skepticism about my previous entry. Ah well, skeptics there shall be, but please consider the following (I'll make appologies ahead of time for the possible inaccuracy of chemical names...I'm an artist, not a chemist.)There is, actually, a portable chemical weapon that can be made with under 100 dollars worth of equipment and 30 dollars of supplies. Granted, its not exactly fast acting, but agent orange is quite effective. don't believe it can be done? check this. Presently, in the US, aproximately 1/3 of pesticides still contain the chemical compound 2-4-D. In itself, this compound can cause various birth defects and forms of cancer, specifically skin cancer and lung cancer.
Furthermore, when mixed with a chemical compound commonly found in fertelizer, 2-4-5-T, it becomes our good ol' pal agent orange. All research was done in the year 2001, so the actual statistics may have altered slightly, but insofar as I've seen, there has been no legislature restricting the usage of above chemicals. (also, I might have the D and T mixed up.) I'd take the time to re-check the exact names, and give you a few name brands to check up on, but I'm in the middle of midterms, so don't have quite that much time. And, as a side note, that isn't the only chemical compound readily available.
As an artist, I know of a lot of materials that could incapacitate a person that are easily available. Rubber cement thinner, spray glue...Yeah...trust me, theres plenty of over-the-counter mixtures that could be used in order to cause a plane to crash or whatnot. And goddess help us that any of them are in the medical trade. Remember, to crash a plane, a truck, or anything else, you need only sedate the pilot/driver. So yes, chemical warefare is quite workable.
Just helping you out there man. [ 10-26-2003: Message edited by: Soldar ]

Maybe because not all boards call them posts 
Ive seen some call them entries, mostly on guestbooks and such.

that only happens when im tired. And they only get thrown at Densetshoe.
Or was that someone else that threw em? hell if i remember.
But either way man, you're interest in this is disturbing.
Presently, in the US, aproximately 1/3 of pesticides still contain the chemical compound 2-4-D
I'm not sure how easy it would even be to break apart a compound like that, or what kind of reaction it would take.
But yes, its possible to make dangerous crap out of household materials. Its been that way for a while.
So what exactly is your point? What do you propose we should do? There is already technology being employed to search a person for non-metallic items like ceramic knives and "containers" using backlit radiation or some such...its like an xray kinda thing. Read about it in National Geographic actually...most recent copy, check it out.
