C-Rations question

Fuels that spontainiously combust when put together Think T Stoff, and C Stoff in an M e 163.

Hydrogen Peroxide, Sodium Permangenate, things like this.

Just look up the composition of rocket fuels sometime.

In case you missed the story of 9-11, there *are* 'witches' out there and it's them who are the _real_ enemy, not the US government.

Hypergolic means when the two parts come together there is (nearly) spontaneous ignition. The SCUD B uses a similar arrangement of modified kerosene and inhibited red fuming nitric acid.

The latter is more than a bit nasty -- as well as being extremely acidic it is also toxic.

As one fellow who used to work about Titan missiles said, "the good news if there is an accident is that you won't have to worry about the IRFNA getting into your bloodstream -- it will eat your lungs out first..."

Ah, yes. I love the film of the guy with the big gloves using an eyedropper whilst combining the two elements and the ensuing mini-explosions. Thanks,

them wicca wimmen are fierce. one stold my dogma after it got run over by my kharma.

The Wiccans are not as big a threat as the Saudis. Every Halloween I see a few Wiccans that tried to fly their broomsticks into buildings, trees and power poles, all with little or no effect.

Another giant step in the effort to disprove the notion of "elitist" liberal Democrats.

How the hell did this thread go from C rats and c-4 to witches and democrats? Gotta be a link there somewhere.

I can lay claim to responsibility for the unintentional transformation from C-rats to C-4 when, after describing what Vietnam-era C-rats looked like I mentioned that C-4 was our preferred method of heating them in the field. From C-4 to where it is now, I have no idea. ;~)

I dont know.

I'm still thinking about hypergolic fuels, and now reading a bunch of Me 163, and A 4 stuff. Thinking about dusting off another Trimaster 163 kit, and adding the Aries, and Eduard detail sets to it :)

"Only a Gentleman can insult me, and a true Gentleman never will..."

You're the one that originally made the reference to witches, not me.

Who's in a 'panic' and why is it limited to the 'Deliverance states' (whatever those are)? Do you mean to imply that we should just ignore the threat of Islamofascism? Every administration from Carter right on through to the first eight months of this one did that. We got 9-11 as a result....

Heh. I'm sure it didn't do the Wiccans any good.....

Witches and Democrats. Hmmmmm......

Think "bug on a windshield".....
