HMTD Explosives, MIT Web Server, High-Capacity Magazines
Police reported finding HMTD (hexamethylene triperoxide diamine) in the Manhattan apartment of Greene and Gleadman. The hosts discover that instructions for making HMTD are readily available on an MIT.edu server. They argue that the chemicals required can be synthesized from common camping heating tablets, questioning if the suspects were truly a threat.
