Great work, Pete. You wouldn't happen to have access to any of those,
would you?
From the titles, the procedure does not sound too promising for our
purposes -- or does it?
A synopsis or quick summary would be extremely helpful right now, as I
am splitting today, and several others are looking at using ammonium
nitrate over the coming days and weeks.
[BTW, I watched the movie (see subject line) last night. Can't remember
what it was about. Guess I'll have to watch it again].
