    That's a whole lot of "economic anxiety" there!

    Dude... Seriously... What the hell is going on? Where was he radicalized?

    As a scientist, I would like to emphasize that any environment where an explosion can be triggered by having a burner on in your kitchen cannot reasonably be called a "lab", since your understanding of lab practice and safety is apparently that of a brain-damaged hamster.

    March 5th? Wasn't that around the same time the Austin bombings were going on? I know Austin PD said nothing on the perp's confession video pointed towards a motive, but I find it hard to believe that in 25 minutes of rambling he didn't mention why he did it. What are the odds that this numb-nuts on the other side of the continent got the same idea at the same time for an unrelated reason? :chris:

    There's your problem--build your apartment out of more durable materials. A beaver dam is never going to withstand an explosion.

    :facepalm: a beaver dam isn't supposed to withstand an explosion. It's designed to break apart from an internal explosion, dissipating the energy rather than compressing it - thus the occupants (both human and beaver) have a better chance of survival. I learned this from Mutual of Omaha's "Wild Kingdom" when I was a kid. BTW see the beaver in the far right chewing down the tree? Bad move! If he's off in his chewing calculations he drops the tree on the lodge to his 9:00 position, killing his buddies. He drops it on the dam to his 2:00 position he wrecks one of the dams. Yes, I have seen that happen in Wisconsin and right here in Georgia.
    BTW Beaver Dam ice fishing tip-ups (made in Beaver Dam Wisconsin of course) are the gold standard! :yes:

    And there is your proof that, when OF talks about destroying a beaver, he has done his research.

    Here? Welcome to living on a decidedly fallen human-centric planet. People are always going to hate. If it's not religion, it'll be color. If it's not color, it'll be class. If it's not class, it will be nationality. We could easily go on and on.

    We have a fire suppression system at work because I have enough chemicals in my shop to level half a block of wooden framed commercial buildings. You can easily spend about $100 and walk away from any auto parts store or home supply store with enough chemicals to completely level a standard house. So, don't chalk the skills necessary to do this up to anything but watching a few to many Youtube videos.

    Sir Patrick what the hell is that picture? It looks like a mix of a beaver, a dog and a monkey! It's goose-stepping like a Nazi soldier and and it's missing patches of fur!
    But yes, I have seen a lot of beavers while out fishing & hunting. And I have seen my share of dead beavers from tree felling mishaps. :bergman: They are pretty good at chewing thru the trees to get them to fall where they want, but it's not an exact science. :( Sometimes beavers will swim up very close to you (curious I Guess) then when theyu get startled they slam their tail down on the water like POW! to warn their beaver buds and scare the shit out of you if you aren't used to it.

    I was more or less considering the home schooled & Christian angle.... Sounds a lot like the Austin TX bomber.

    The church in the US is so jacked up and fractured that even ecumenical cooperation is slowing down. On one extreme we have the seeker-sensitive types that water down the gospel to the point where it literally means nothing and the church is nothing more than a social organization. On the other end you have the cultists that are desperately trying to speed up Christ's return and the "end times."

    I firmly believe that's one reason that Reformed Orthodox Theology is the fastest growing trend in the US today. It abhors the violence of the cultist but maintains the truth and urgency of the gospel.
