I've seen C4, but I have no idea what a "thin sheet of explosive" that
could be used in a letter bomb looks like or acts like.

The part about the building having no security was interesting. I wonder
if this is the norm.

Imagine C-4 flattened to about 1/8th inch. That should provide an idea.
Yesterday's
news said the building met the requirements of the ATF guys. Apparently,
surveillance
cameras or live guards are not part of the requirements.

Random thoughts:

1) I wonder why some politicians are so concerned that guys like me might
have a 14 round magazine in a handgun, instead of a 10 round magazine, but
meanwhile, it seems to be OK to store explosives in a shed you buy from
Sears.

2) I wonder if the cops have that scientist strapped to a chair, with wires
connected to his jewels. If not, why not?
