The answer might be elusive, but for those who report knowledge of a CO with the overt fondness for larger amounts of Tannerite, just please call Homeland Security and report it. Nobody has the right to be that big of a nuisance neighbor, and being explosion-happy isn’t a very good psychological indicator for anyone in corrections or law enforcement.

And if it inst the CO, Homeland will still look into it. I live in Cottage Hill and haven’t heard a single peep except for the CSX trains and the concrete pip casting plant on 95A and Quintette (and even they aren’t as loud as what I hear y’all describing).

The explanation is quite obvious and simple….the upcoming antithesis of the autumnal equinox creates a bilateral divergence of air pressure related to the El Nino effect on the jet stream, resulting in amplification of the changes in g forces as related to the forming full moon. Who wouldn’t know that?

I live off Wolf Log Rd in Flomaton. We had a guy on one side that shot his gun all hrs of the day/night, now he’s gone. Our other neighbor is shooting this stuff off we can’t do anything about it, he’s on his property. I’m sick & tired of it, people have no respect for anyone anymore. When their “fun” rattles my house & knocks things off the wall, then their “fun” should be limited. In case all the stupid people just having “fun” don’t know it, we are being attacked left & right, & their “fun” terrifies people, thinking that these booms could be terrorism you never know anymore. I say grow up!!

I wonder if it could be from the gas and oil industry nearby. Do they inject wastewater into the ground when they drill? Is USGS or EPA or DEP looking into this? It could be very serious.

It may or may not be tannerite.

A quick google search of the ingredients and you’ll understand why it’s not illegal.

Yes it’s big and powerful. Recall what brought down the federal building in oklahoma was in the same chemical family as this stuff. This however needs a rifle to set it off.

A violation of a noise ordinance perhaps might be the best way to regulate it’s use.

When used for it’s designed purpose of exploding targets it’s great.

Idiots building bombs and posting YouTube videos has become a problem. It also becomes unsafe in quantity.

My wife and I could hear loud booms. We live in the Westop Pensacola area and where just coming home after eating out. My wife as me did I heAR the boom at first I did not but once I parked car and got out I could hear several loud booms. I dismissed it as fireworks. After seeing this I as am not so sure now.

Gas exploration people setting charges for weeks during hunting season in the Jay Berrydale area. They said would be coming back to set charges off. The way they explained it would be only a thud nothing dramatic. Reading this I do recall an explosion in Blackwater State forest not too far from Ruths store. I was in tree stand right before dark. Very large explosion! Made my ears rings. First thing that came to mind was an accident at the pipeline lift station or whatever they call it. But no sirens or anything liked that followed. Brother-in-law hear from his tree stand in Berrydale at ten miles away. This was the end of January this year.
