That Evil Internet, Pt. XXIII

Caught an interesting segment on this evening's PBS news program with Jim
Lehrer.

Two senators were discussing whether the U.S. should sign the international
agreement banning chemical warfare.

Sen. Kyl maintains that verification is impossible and that Iraq, Libya, and
North Korea will never participate.

Sen. Nunn responds that we should sign anyway.  Besides, he adds in the non
sequitur of the week, anyone can get instructions on how to build chemical
weapons on the Internet.

I guess the Internet isn't just for pornography and conventional bomb-making
advice anymore.

     WARNING: DANGEROUS. 

     Simple advice for the manufacture of Chlorine Gas (similar enough to 
mustard gas that it has the same effect). 

     1 bottle of Chlorine Bleach.
     1 Bottle of lime-away.

     Hold Breath, mix in open container. Clear the building before you breathe
again. 

     Use more bottles for a larger area.

     I did this accidentally when I was young (16), foolish and working 
for a hospital. That it happened at work (_very_ small amounts of both bleach
and lime-away) made the Emergency Room visit free and quick. No permanent
damage, but I was lucky.

Or one can use the technique my father accidentally discovered when he
was  in school and wanted to electrolyze water.  He made himself a
cell out of a broken light bulb (and wired it in series with a good
light bulb) and then realized that he did not have any sulphuric acid
lying around to use as a catalyst.  So he used table salt instead.

Don' foget to try Tomato leaves (high CN content) and lysol toilet bowl
cleaner (mostly HCl)

CN+HCl=Gas chamber for those who are un-enlightened.
