Was searching through old Zotted trolls, and ran across Burkeman1's statement to the effect:
It disappeared because it was most likely a 15 year old dud shell from the Iran/Iraq war that was scavanged by some scrubs to use an IED.

What troll recently tried to say that the Sarin IED was an expended shell?
Noticed that Burke said that earlier this year in the above quoted post.
Makes me wonder if some of our more rabid trolls lately have been JohnGalt and Burkeman1 trying to disrupt like they used to prior to banning.
I've noticed familiar spoor in tracking trolls, myself - Bogdan and Sabertooth, to be precise...
Periodic disruption raids are part of the profile, that's certain.
Be Vigilant.
