I wonder if the potato cannon I built for my kids qualifies. It uses an explosive such as hairspray. But the tennis ball mortar uses an explosive such as lighter fluid. (We have this book called...

Is there significant difference between a terrorist going into action thinking there MIGHT be someone there armed, and KNOWING there is someone there armed. At least, I'm curious to know if you SMEs...
