I'd just rub it with my own feces -- works every time.

JesseL: 10 MT in a backpack? Must be one hell of a backpack.

"Suitcase nukes" typically have a sub-kiloton yield.

Of course there's no way a 10-megaton bomb could be that small. Is there a threshold for threats being too absurd to be taken seriously? What if he said pushing a button on his cellphone would destroy the planet? What if someone said they had a lightsaber or could shoot Force lightning from their hands? It's all impossible but people might be ignorant enough to believe the 10-megaton bomb one.

Captain_Ballbeard: I like how he claims it was in his bag, which they searched, but then they go an search the whole train.

Law enforcement out of control, and completely lacking in common sense.

The funny thing is they led with the drug sniffing dogs.

10 megatons? Come on, guy. Anyone riding Amtrak would be lucky to have a 1 megaton bomb.

I can sympathize. I was on an Amtrak going from DC to NY and some idiot kid tried to steal my laptop while I was sleeping. The cord was wrapped around my leg and I woke up when he yanked it, then he ran forward two cars and slid it under his seat and tried to pretend nothing happened. I got the porter and got the laptop back, and his mom wailed on him so hard I dropped it instead of having the police take him off at the next stop. Black women can be really mean to their kids - even I wouldn't have hit that kid that hard, and I didn't know him.
