@neiltyson: Not that anybody asked, but a traditional bomb is nothing more than an explosive concentration of unstable chemicals.” -

@soapboxdiatribe@kelly_carlin@neiltyson Yes but they kill by dismemberment crushing burning impaling & trauma, all much nicer than gas.

@neiltyson I'm trying to think of a weapon that's not a "chemical" weapon in the literal sense. High powered lasers, maybe. What else? -
@cammerman Rail gun -
@jchyip The rail is made of metal, which is a chemical. -
@cammerman Ah, well if you mean something that doesn't involve elements... -
@jchyip I think that was the point. The word "chemical" is used to trigger fear, when in reality it is so vague as to be meaningless.
