You can be darned sure that under the current regime, those regulations
will be changed the moment the "Dept. of Homeland Security" gets even a
_hint_ that concocting rocket-fuel even _might_ be possible using them,
or the moment the "Nanny State" favored by the alternate tyranny hears
that someone has blown their fingers off playing with it. (Note that
"Homeland Security" is =ALREADY= trying to crack down on model rocketry !!!)

PS. Because of a string of Hot-Rodding accidents police are crarking down
on Nitrous Oxide suppliers.

The same will happen if there are a string of amateur or professional
rocketry accidents.


Well, large agribusiness and ready availability of fertiliser are sort of
dependennt on each other, so its not likely fertiliser would stop being
easily available, nop matter how many times it was used in bombs...


Only certain types of fertilizer are suitable for amateur bomb-making,
and only very specialized sorts of agriculture depend on those specific
types of fertilizer.

You cannot, for example, pull up to an ag supply shop in Northern Ireland
and buy a truckload of straight ammonium nitrate. Not any more. OKC
wasn't enough to justify a similar regime here, but half a dozen repeats
probably would.
