I've been thinking about firing up a still.. You can make one, or you can buy one.. Lot's of info on here.. The only drawback is, I'd probably be dead within a week...

mikey4691: It's even better if you distill it... Yeeeeeee haw...
Damn, now i started to google which store in my country has dandelion vine

raphael119: Timothy McVeigh didn't seem to have any problem with using ammonium nitrate at all. Easy, at the time, to get ahold of large quantity.
ah the Oklahoma bombing its a good example to do a research on it - a serious research on Scapegoat
i forgot what happened to him, was he executed?

tomcatty: just chuck on some diesel or light a fire near it, job done, but don't sit on it, it
would blow your shlong to he Adriatic coast
you might want to do some more research on that!would blow your shlong to he Adriatic coast

Today’s news has been dominated by the terrible explosion in Beirut, Lebanon. The blame for the explosion has been directed at 3,000 tons of ammonium nitrate that was being stored in a warehouse in Beirut’s port. What is ammonium nitrate, why can it explode, and what happens when it does? This graphic takes a look.Ammonium nitrate’s major use is as a fertiliser – this accounts for around 78% of its use (by volume) worldwide. It’s a source of nitrogen, important for the growth of plants.
It’s also used in some explosive mixtures which are used for mining and quarrying. Mixed with fuel oil it’s known as ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil), which accounts for approximately 80% of the 2.7 billion kilograms of explosives used in North America every year. In these explosive mixtures, it acts as an oxidising agent, helping other materials burn.
In its pure form, ammonium nitrate isn’t usually explosive – in fact, it’s safe to handle. However, if it is contaminated with impurities, the risk of it detonating increases. Heating also poses a danger: ammonium nitrate decomposes at around 230°C, and can explode when heated to between 260–300°C if it’s confined.
The force of the ammonium nitrate explosion is provided by the rapid generation of gas as it breaks down. The primary reaction when it breaks down produces nitrogen, water vapour and oxygen.
This reaction isn’t the only one taking place, however. You might have wonder what caused the plume of smoke seen after the explosion in Beirut to have an orange-red colour. This is due to other reactions generating nitrogen dioxide. It’s not the only additional product: ammonia and nitrous oxide are amongst the others.
