explosion in SA
Anyone know what these guys made, have only seen 2 stories on the explosion which happened this week, unfortunately 2 dead and 1 missing.
First story - think it was in Melb Sun had it as a ammunition factory. Second story online (can't remember where) had it as an explosives factory.

Last time I was there it was a magazine selling comercial explosives but that was 15 years ago, it used to be a military base before that.


It's mercy, compassion and forgiveness I lack; not rationality.
