59. I wanted to assume...
I wanted to assume (for the sake of DU) that we have a lot of posters who know precisely what each and every explosive device and triggering device looks like, but after a while, I realized that no one knows, and saying "it doesn't look like a bomb" is much like saying, "he looks harmless", i.e., just an assumption.

That in fact, I don't think anyone can say with validity, "that doesn't look like a bomb" if for no other reason than bombs and triggering devices have no one particular look...
