I remember the early 1980's, when the survivalist movement began to bloom, how publishers like Paladin Press and Loompanics sold stuff similar to this so paranoids could camp in the hills and make poisons, explosives, etc. Ironically, it's the same people that used to buy this stuff that now want to see its publication outlawed. As the French say, "Young devil, old saint; young saint, old devil."

The author, unlike some people from that time period, simply grew up.
