[SOC] Dangerous e-mail warning]

Coo it's been quiet.
Just read a news report (won't give the link).
The police have discovered about half a ton of a certain type of material
in West London.
Constructing a substantial bomb from this material is hardly a secret but a
radio station had a news report where the reporter said something along the
lines of, "Well you can make a bomb by mixing the <substance> with, errr,
other substances".
A written report from the same organisation went further and almost provided
a recipe.
Whilst the information is not hard to come by, it strikes me as
irresponsible of the media to disseminate details of this nature on national
broadcasts. It provides individuals with an idea or intent with information
pointing toward a means of implementing it.
I suppose this email doesn't help either though I've been deliberately vague
about sources and detail.
Oklahoma, Bali and London have all suffered attacks from such IEDs
(improvised explosive devices) constructed from these materials.
The press detail is reprihensible.
