CHEG, I agree with your statements, above. Now I'm starting to wonder if I've associated with you in a class or through some other venue. What institution did you get your MS through? I went to grad school at NMT. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.

I got my MS from Missouri S&T. I’ve taken some classes at Colorado School of Mines and Texas A&M (TEEX) but I haven’t been able to take anything at NMT yet. With my new position, I might be able to do some training or finally take a class there. Have you ever participated in a Raven’s Challenge or been out to NCETR? I’ve definitely interacted with some folks from NMT, LANL and SNL at various conferences and what not, but I don’t know that we’ve ever met in person. I’m sure we know some of the same people though lol. Do you ever make it out to Livermore? The mission definitely seems to be changing at my current position and I’m not able to do near as much of the explosives stuff that I’m passionate about. So I decided to look into other opportunities and found a perfect fit for me at LLNL. I was very impressed when I toured the facility, and really feel like my new position is a perfect fit for my skill set. Feel free to hit me up at the email in my profile and maybe we can talk some shop sometime. I certainly wouldn’t mind a few insights into the new world that I’m entering from someone that’s been there for a bit. And if we ever run into each other in person, the first round is on me. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

right on man thank you for your service. i was certainly NOT broad-brushing LE. too many squared-away, dedicated cops out there to do that. but i also believe -- professionals absolutely must hold their peers accountable for poor performance -- whether they are pilots, engineers, surgeons, etc none of which has much to do with this thread -- again apologize for the drift ------------------------------------ Proverbs 27:17 - As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. | |||

So, are we agreed that this was not an explosion of just a reloader's supply of smokeless powder? Without any other explosives, triggers, etc. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

I'd say yes. Us normal reloader's shouldn't be worrying about this happening. Just don't add too many interesting side hobbies.  ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.
