It's like being an alcoholic... if you're wondering about it, you are.

Whoa, thanks for the warning! I'd hate to bomb booze. Oh, and you are probably worth keeping too. grin

Now Madbomber Mike's idea of using poison ivy smoke, that's something to think about. Lord knows we have enough of that stuff around to experiment with...

No dice, I'm not allergic to it. :P Yes, I have to fight the urge to point out "good TP plants" to people.

HEYYYYYYY!!!!
OK man! Truce! At this point, when the booze is on the line, I'll call it quits, and opt for full cooperation.
Having hostages is just the last straw man! LOLOLOLOL!!!

As for the poison ivy smoke...your skin may not be allergic to it...but I'll bet your lungs are! It works on everyone!
I used it on a large scale for a smoke screen during an attack during an exercise in Texas. We filled a ditch with about 20 big bundles of it with some other brush on the upwind side. Fired it at about 2am during a tight inversion and let it drift for about a half hour. Everybody thought we'd used CN and DM, the whole support area was on their knees for an hour...needless to say...we won! LOL!

Smoke from poison oak/ivy can cause fatal respitory distress ( Wikipedia ). That means that people can DIE from it. And you use used it against friendlies in a training exercise? Remind me to remove my blank adapter if I ever have to train with you. We will see who LOL's all over the place then...
