First off here's what I remember from last summer on Demolition cord and primer
cord:
Primer cord burns slowly, about 3ft per minute, and is used to trigger
explosives (blasting caps set in c4 etc.) It looks just like Det. cord, except
for small blue rings on it.

Demolition Cord (det. Cord) Is the stuff that has been disussed on here, and
seen on M*A*S*H. It explodes, and is used to trigger multiple explosives, and
is itself set off by using primer cord. Its a thin cord, maybe 6-7mm diameter,
and guess what: olive drab green. It's pretty nasty stuff, even when used by
itself.

Spidersilk Armor:
No kidding, the Army IS working on this stuff. My chemistry Professor has done
some work with it and told us that the stuff they are working with is _much_
stronger than steel.

The best looking woman on ST_TNG? ooh, a tough one. I'd have to vote for Rho
Larin, but Lursa and Bettor are close behind *Smirk*

and how about a shellfish totem? (I'm an Abalone shaman, I'll handle this!)
