Our local Air Force Base (Eglin) is playing with their large noisy toys again.

Creating earthquakes in Florida.

I wish they'd do a few of these in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Maybe then our folks could come home.

I seen this on TV last night, they said it was 21,000 lb . Few more of those in Florida and it may sink.

Great
 
What a great idea. Looks like the perfect tool for urban renual in a number of countries. Sort of a arc light with just one boom.

Stay healthy,
Andy

Ron...
 
...yeah, 21,000 is the total weight. The explosive is 18,700 pounds of tritonal.

And there's probably 18,700 neurotic whitetailed deer running around the Eglin AFB reservation right now.

I don't know about sinking Florida, but if they set one off on the right day, maybe it'll shake loose all the hanging chads on the punch card ballots!

Heater? Heater?
 
Oh, yeah! I remember what that is!

Let's see...what did I do with the heater...?

Ummm...I think I left it right next to the snow shovels...
