Yeah, but making a highly explosive device out of something most people would hand to 3 year old's is just COOL!!!

I run 2-3 "decent" fireworks shows a year up at the cottage (Mrs. Cheffo likes the fireworks and is good friends with the guy working at the distributor, so I just trucked 250 lbs of fireworks to the cottage). I've looked into upgrading my certification, but it's already a lot of work and all of the costs come out of my pocket, so it doesn't make much sense to go bigger.
We've never had an incident (that wasn't dealt with before it became a danger ... ::) ), but this past week I met two separate, seemingly intelligent, folks who, while running normal "family" fireworks shows received some very nasty burns (e.g. requiring plastic surgery and they still don't look right).
Also, this past year, there was an incident of a teenager running around the schoolyard at my kids' school shooting the little kids with roman candles.
If "regular" people are getting hurt as I saw this week, then maybe those sales *should* be restricted (along with the sales of classic Pac boards!), so long as the restrictions can be dealt with in an inobtrusive manner.
I dunno, but there are some folks out there fuekerning it up for the rest of us.
