        Agreed. I'd just put 15 red wires, with 15 batteries, 3 displays with different times. Have fun! :-D

          That of course is assuming the bomb can fit in the microwave :rolleyes: Could always just put a big magnet over the electronic parts.

            But which kind of blue pill are you talking about?

                Pour liquid nitrogen over it all, coating well, and then just cut all the wires.

                That's the same advise you gave me for fixing my internet problem, and that didn't work out so well for me. I think you give bad advise, and probably shouldn't be trusted. Not to mention the fact that you also told me that I didn't have to worry about spilling that stuff, and you were wrong. I don't think Mr. fluffy is ever going to forgive me, even if he does look better with a shorter tail. ;P

                    Clearly you didn't follow the directions did you? I suspect that you stopped reading at the word "frozen", got excited, hit the Any key, and hilarity ensued from there. Truly Douglas, you need to improve your mad reading skilz. PS: Tell Mr Fluffy I'm sorry, but I warned him about cross pollination relationships...

                      Next time shave Mr Fluffy first. A splash of lN2 on the skin won't do anything since it'll 'float' on a cloud of evaporation until it rolls off and hits the floor. It's when you get it in something like hair of clothes that absorbs it that you need to worry about frostbite.

                        Fly it into outer space and plunge it into the middle of an asteriod, preferably one that's heading for earth.

                          But wait ... if I just pour that stuff on Mr. Fluffy, his fur will freeze and fall off ... that's WAY easier than trying to hold him down and shave him ... See Jim! Why can't you give solid advise like Dan here?!?! Now where's Mr. Fluffy . . .

                            Either of the wires connected to the detonator, provided the detonator is isolated from other conductors. If it only has one wire, run!

                                      provided ofc that the wires connected to the detonator are the control wires, and not booby trapped outputs with the actual controller behind the detonator in the explosive itself. In the latter case cutting any of the wires will make it go boom.

                                        Well, Mr. Fluffy is already kind of an ice cube, so that works out with the pick thing ... so now I just need to know, the left or right lobe?

                                          provided ofc that the wires connected to the detonator are the control wires, and not booby trapped outputs with the actual controller behind the detonator in the explosive itself. In the latter case cutting any of the wires will make it go boom.

                                          Yes, I was going on the very simple premise that the wires on the detonator are power supply wires, at most one either pulling the other to ground, or even merely closing a circuit. I know noting of detonators, only simple voltage divider trigger circuits, including short and open. :rolleyes:
