Why lowbatts, that's self-depridation! Why would anyone want to set one off under his arse? Me and Glen, the neighborhood weirdo...gotta be careful how I say this. Anyway we took a half stick he "found" down to the sandbar on the river and tried to set it off with a .410 shotgun. It wouldn't go off until we moved up pretty close and all at once, BOOM!! It sand blasted us from head to toe and our ears rang for a week! We thought you had to have a cap to set it off, but we were wrong! He hauled it around in the trunk of his car for a couple of weeks and it's a wonder he didn't blow himself up! If you were over 18 you could buy dynamite at the local feed store back then. A lot of older guys I knew went fishing with it! Monty
