They don't have to wait until spring to thaw it out - a quick application of a blowtorch would work just fine. Why those guys don't put a smart guy like me in charge of this stuff I just don't know...

George Foreman was on Sean Hannity's radio yesterday while Sean was book signing in Dallas, ( I went to the Anatole in Dallas but it was swamped! One of his handlers says he signs 600 books per hour!).

Maybe a Forman Grill could be used to "cook" the mess!

I remember reading a story in grammer school (awhile back)about a company hauling dynamite on a horse drawn wagon.
It was winter and the thinking at the time was that it was dangerous to let the dynamite get cold (freeze) so they had hot bricks under the tarp covered boxes of dynamite. The story went that the teamster got stuck in the snow and the dynamite did freeze. They found out that the dynamite was more difficult to ignite. That was new dynamite.

As dynamite ages, the nitroglycerin interspersed in the clay coagulates and weeps out, then becomes very dangerous. 25 years is old. I guess cold isn't good in old stuff.

Not an expert but that is what I remember.

"Local law enforcement officials did not learn about the explosives until last week. Joe Farmer, a DOT real estate supervisor, blamed the delay in informing them on an internal communication error in his agency."

Government bumbling in a post 9/11 environment?

"I'm scared and I'm angry," said Shirley Cipra, who lives about 500 feet from the shed. "We've been here all these years. I get sick to my stomach when I think how many times my whole family has been there in danger."

They always have to find one person that has freaked out... sheesh. If you werent home and never got a call from the reporter you would have never known. People like that drive me bonkers.

I don't suppose anyone would think to put a big tent over the shed and slowly warm it up instead of waiting till spring.

It's best to move dynamite when it IS frozen.....it is most stable then.
