To get enough to produce an appreciable effect, you >have to put, say, an ounce of the precipitate under the seat. An OUNCE ???? Are you kidding?? An ounce would blow the whole stall down. I take it you've never made or used ammonium triodide. It works much better painted as a film on a doorknob but a few swipes of slurry on a toilet seat should be a blast. My favorite toilet trick used to be to take some metallic potassium and (with rubber gloves) stick it under the rim of a toilet. A real blast !!! Especially in the womens' bathroom with flush-while- sitting users. I can still see the girl running out of the bathroom with her panties around her ankles and smoke comming out from under her dress :-) john -- John De Armond, WD4OQC | "I can't drive 85!"
