I saw this in the Boston Globe. Massachusetts State Police Troop F (quit with the F Troop jokes, I’m sure they’ve heard them) were conducting training exercises with bomb sniffing dogs at Logan Airport in Boston. Apparently they hid 8 ounces of Semtex plastic explosives under the bumper of a truck belonging to the airport. An airport employee got in the truck and drove about a mile and a half. Police were still looking for the explosives.
Bruce Schneier said on his blog that “It’s only eight ounces of the stuff, but still….â€. I really hope he is kidding. Why? Take a look at what 7 ounces can do to a pressurized Boeing 747:
There is also a movie of this here
Any questions????
