I picked this one up recently. If anyone happens to have the missing pages to this report I would be interested in getting a copy.
Thanks.
Dave.

Wow Dave thats remarkable!!! ...... you may be hard pressed to find the missing pages though, I imagine this is a very scarce document full stop!!
I know from my research that the British carried out fragmentation tests on the butterfly bomb, but this is indeed something very speical...I too would like to hear from anyone who has further information on this one.....
wouldnt you just like to get hold of one of those test pieces??

kind regards Kev
 
OK I admit it, this was my April 1st joke but you guys are all far to smart to get fooled by it.:tinysmile_twink_t2:
The document was made up by me as were the tiny butterfly's.
I will have to come up with something better next year.

Well, I'd like to give Dave a round of applause :congrats:you did a fine job on that document, and to be honest if I hadnt been in on it, it would have fooled me, very impressive............and although there was a distinct lack of comments, no-one appears to have dismissed it as fake, despite the date at the bottom of the document.
Dave also decided not to let this one run, as we all know mis-information can soon become fact, and we often see posted info appear on CD's that are sold ....... its hard enough sometimes to sift fact from fiction and for this reason the truth had to be revealed after 24 hours.

Will now be cautious about all April the first posts for ever more!!!

regards Kev
