Same here.

Strange if this is intentional and strange if it isn't. Something is off here. TNT won't explode from fire. It needs a primer to set it off so a Dynamite explosion would need to be intentional but if this was intentional, why choose an open area like this? If the goal is to do damage, there are a lot of places to cause more damage than out in the open on a highway.

And that crater and debris field is definitely a detonating explosive. The only thing I know of that will detonate like that without needing a primer and is readily available is acetylene. My guess is a welding tank truck.

Looked at the 911 site lots of guessing, one comment was Menards sells dynamite for $10 a stick that made me laugh.

good point. If you can afford something that takes a photo from the sky, you'd spend the $20 to put a color camera on it.

Dynamite isn't usually sensitive to heat. The main things that set off dynamite are shock and friction. Our preferred method of disposal of dynamite is to burn it on a bed of combustibles. I burned a shed that contained leaking dynamite with crystals, and had no explosion. I've also burned cases of dynamite with no explosive effect.

It'll be interesting to hear the results from the investigation.

Reminds me of the Somolian building that blew up in Mpls a few years back. FBI trucks outside in minutes and the building was torn down and filled in flat by the next morning. News said it was a gas leak....until the gas company stated they didn't have a gas line into that building. Hmmmm.

If there was terrorist involvement, you'll never hear about it....only the lies. Perhaps he had an over inflated tire?
