Well in that case the exposure t DHMO is temperature sensitive. If too cold the DHMO can cause extreme shrinkage. Warm DHMO can be very soothing though.

From what I've realized at least with my hometown is that even if your state has its own free market economy and monetary system, one vital element is to have your own ready for battle standing army to even remotely attempt succession from the motherland. I have no idea why most of my people don't even realize this simple missing link. The argument is that the one rebel state already has all the key ingredients and still haven't been able to lol!

My very limited knowledge came up with 325ft/s at impact, but I have about 25% confidence it's close to correct.

Good job ........ you get a A+

Maybe that's where the old saying came from ....."in the blink of an eye".

That was back in the day when we conserved ammunition and some had the philosophy of "one shot, one kill".

Now, it's more ...... the faster I can pull the trigger ...... the more rounds I can spray all over the place ...... one of them is bound to hit the target .....

We called that the "16 method" back when the Canadian service rifles were still only semi autos.

Yep, then the toddler has "hyper drive" when you go after them ....... they throw back their shoulders, swing their arms wildly and ....... swoosh, they are gone ......

We didn't have those in my day. We laughed at them since we had ones that could knock a hole through concrete block walls. Thus the term "16 method" for point and spray weapons. We just had to squeeze the trigger for each round.

Yep, we too had a "rifle" that could blow a hole in a concrete block wall.

I would simply summon one of the tanks from my attached tank platoon to the front and boom ..... the wall was gone ......
