I wrote her about the fact that picric isn't banned (at least not
nationwide).

So I'm wondering. . . Is anyone interested in contacting Ms. Woodall and
pointing out the rampant misinformation and shock-mongering? While the RCRA
violations are certainly deplorable, so is the attitude that all chemicals
are bad, and that all forms of picric acid are a smoldering crater just
waiting to happen.† Of course, even if the point were made, I don't suppose
we'd be seeing a public retraction. [sigh]
