Post #22,672 by Ric Locke 12/28/01 11:54:07 PM Reply	Duh? According to what I looked up (on Google), TATP is a "primary" explosive, i.e., one easy to set off -- primer material, not a bulk explosive. If what he had was TATP, why wasn't he able to set it off? The little I was able to easily find indicates that a good whack should be sufficient. Regards, Ric
