For Ori, thanks Bill. Not every day.....

Incidentally Bill, how I didn't think to Google the term, I can only plead old age

Ah, Dale. I've heard of "Never too old to learn".

Thanks Ori but at 84 I forget at the same rate as I learn

I thin k it's thermIte cutter charge, not thermAte. According to apochraphal legends from MIT, years ago, when there used to be trolleys running on rails from Boston toe Harvard Square in Cambridge, MIT undergrads, the hellions, would queue up at the trolley stops and board slowly to keep it immobile, while their friends would place thermite charges around the steel trolley wheels and set them off, which would weld the wheels to the rails. The motorman would try to put the trolley back in motion, and it would just sit there. Young scientists with too much free time on their hands.

Thinking it's thermate kinda givbe you an idea of how seriously to take conspiracy theories like the original post.
