#1 Maybe we've figured out a way to detonate boms within a certain area, and these have been test. At least we should let them think that. We have evidence of it's success right here in this story.

#2 Premature explodiation. So frustrating.

#3 Such explosives are very sensitive to "milli-amperage overcharges", and thus can be set off fairly easily with static electricity, induced electrical fields, and radio transmitters.

I believe one individual in Europe blew himself up by walking over the underground coil at an intersection that lets the light know to turn green because a car is over it.

#4 We should tell them that those who manage to get fellow taliban while exploding get 144 virgins per dead taliban.

#5 Perhaps premature seething set off the explosives.

#6 Found out that you can blow a claymore by keying an AN/GRC-26 at full power. Fortunatly the mine was not point at the rig and was sandbagged to the rear. It was still one of those come to Jesus moments.

#7 A come to Jesus moment/? Boy are those sucide bombers going to be upset -- they were expecting 72 virgins and endlessly flowing wine!
