Soldier's mom finds Silly String shipper

DEPTFORD TOWNSHIP, N.J. -- After months of frustration, a mother of a soldier in Iraq has found someone to ship about 80,000 cans of Silly String to the troops, who use the foamy substance to detect trip wires on bombs.

Talk about a great idea! What's even better, it didn't take millions in tax money to determine its value.

Ya think they'll ever assign a Mil Spec number to Silly String?

Why not? I remember a federal stock number on a product with the brand name Trojan.

What a lot of people don't realize, is that Silly String is highly flammable, and thus also a low budget weapon in the global struggle against violent extremism:
