No. They are classed as Hazard Class 1.4S and the explosion can be confined to the package. High Explosives are classed as 1.1.Quote:

Question..... What happens to the salt in the sea water when the water is deposited on the ground as rain? Rain water is fresh water.
Jim
rainwater falls as fresh water if it results from the normal evapotranspiration cycle (salt doesn't evaporate). However, if the rain falls as a result of a cyclonic event over a salt water body then it will be salty or brackish at best.Quote:

Having lived through an eye (of a hurricane) I can guarantee there is little or no updraft.
So a cyclone is a storm over water, and the water in the cyclone does not come from being sucked out of the ocean.
Tex
I'm with Tex, in that a cyclone is generally driving a mass of high water up over the beach and providing a lot of wind etc, but it is a large mass of air rotating over a very sparse area and therefore does not 'suck up' debris, but rather blasts it along relatively horizontally.
A waterspout on the other hand is more like a tornado (but not a tornado), and does suck up water. If it hits land it will make a salty deposit.
The answer I found (and was looking for) is "no, 'cos the rate of combustion is under the speed of sound." ie. they're subject to deflagration rather than detonation.Quote:

Ok forumites, what is "fenestration"?
In an architectural sense, 'fenestration' means windows, ie, the application of windows to an elevation.
De-fenestration means slinging people out of windows. :eek:
I'll ask a question seeing as Driver hasn't.
What proper word, (no names etc.,) in the English language has a 'Q' in it that is not immediately followed by a 'u'?
QINDARS QINTARS QIVIUTS QAIDS QANAT QOPHS QURSH and QWERTY if that is now a word and not an acronym.
QWERTY is the only one of those that I have ever heard of and that isn't really a word.
However, a google search validates your nominees.
No the last line was... go into dogie submission.Quote:

Question:- what is a Warrington Hammer? AKA in "Woodwork in Theory and Practice"
Cheers:)
A Warrington hammer is a cross-pein hammer, specifically designed for woodwork. It has a head with a normal hammer shape on one side and a tapering narrow edge on the other side, designed for starting pins, brads, tacks and nails before they are hammered home.Quote:

We-e-ell, again, y'see, they tell you it's got leeks in it. But that means the cook has put leeks in it, doesn't it? And we all know about cooks and leaks and soup, don't we? :eek:Quote:
