Hi all,

Related to my query yesterday about a 1980s 100% hydrogen peroxide explosion: I never found anything that matched the description, but I did locate some other stories that I'll be turning into blog posts over the next week or so.

Here's the first:

(We're working on getting the blog's e-mail alerts working again...)
