Guest guest Posted February 12, 2003 Report Share Posted February 12, 2003 Not that it matters a whit but the original message stated that Motorola -- incidentally one of several CIA front companies -- makes a component USED in land mines. Note the distinction. Detonation devices are what you cite. Fair enough. A candle wick can be used as a fuse. Fertilizer and manure can be used to make nitrate bombs. If you mix 7UP and Chlorox you get chlorine gas. You begin to see, after awhile, that holding anyone but the actual mad bomber accountable is either impossible or very selective and based more on prejudice than fact.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 I understand what you're saying but i'm not convinced because of one reason. 7up and chlorox have other purposes. food and cleaning respectively; electronic detonation devices are used only for blowing stuff up. until you can tell me a practical, non-violent use for (electronic) detonation devices, my anti-motorola stance, stands. , The Stewarts <stews9@c...> wrote: > Not that it matters a whit but the original message stated that > Motorola -- incidentally one of several CIA front companies -- makes a > component USED in land mines. > > Note the distinction.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Mining for natural resources...oil exploration...demolition of aged building (using controlled implosions) to make way for new construction...in a limited number of cases--road, canal, and tunnel construction. Oops!! Once I got started, I couldn't stop. I hope, you're not upset to get six.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 well oil is something i wish we could stop using, and i don't drive a car for just that reason.. but my understanding of what i was told is that land mine-detonation devices differ from the detonation devices used in larger explosives. meaning that motorola is designing detonation devices specificially and exclusively used for land mines. i would like to know whether or not that is the case. , " daveo " <daveo@m...> wrote: > > Mining for natural resources...oil exploration...demolition of aged building > (using controlled implosions) to make way for new construction...in a > limited number of cases--road, canal, and tunnel construction. > > Oops!!
