		       Tyranny Issue 1 5/1996
		       ----------------------


Welcome to the first issue of tyranny. Tyranny was founded by two guys from 
the now defunct "Sick" art group. We felt there was a need for a new style 
"anarchy" group that  had more then just the bomb recipes copied out of the 
anarchist cookbook. We will try to provide you,  the reader on subjects such 
as political ideology, survival, pyrotechnics (the safe way) and computer 
related issues.

Tyranny will be released on the second Monday of the month. And for now will 
be found at the following web site:

	http://www.ozemail.com.au/~coghlan/tyranny.html

Don't worry if this URL doesn't work as it is just temporary until we arrange 
a full time web site. If the above site doesn't work you can join our mailing 
list. Send mail to:

This is the first in a four part series about caching operations. In this 
first part I will introduce you to the idea of caching and give you general 
knowledge into the subject. In the remaining three parts I will discuss in 
more detail subject like, what should I put in a cache? What should a cache 
be made of? and where should I place it.

What is a cache?
Unlike the cache you are probably familiar with, this cache has nothing to 
do with computers. This type of cache is a store or "stash" of good (usually 
buried in the ground) that may be needed in an emergency. These have been 
used for many year all over the world but especially in colonies like the 
USA and Australia. Having a well constructed cache on hand in times of 
emergency can sometimes be the difference between survival and death.

There are three main types of cache. These are the arms or retreat cache, 
the route cache and the survival or natural disaster cache. These three can 
be combined to make a custom cache for your needs.

The first type of cache, a retreat cache is basically a store of weapons, 
ammunition, small amounts of food and water and a basic first aid kit 
(bandages, antiseptic, splints, etc.). This cache is used by people who 
live in politically unstable countries or where there are large numbers of 
violent criminals.

The second type of cache, The rout cache is similar to the retreat cache 
except that you only store arms to complement what you have already obtained 
from the retreat cache. The cache is place somewhere on your escape route 
about 48 normal travelling time for your place of departure. This should 
contain enough food and medical supplies to get you to your destination or 
to the next cache if the destination is over 2-3 days normal travelling time.

The final cache, the survival cache is stored in case of natural disaster. 
It should contain basic supply of are but this is not really necessary. The 
majority of the cache should be made up of food and water (at least a months 
supply), medical supplies, , clothes, sleeping bags, tents, cooking equipment 
(gas stove or equivalent), fuel and most importantly, cash. Chances are that 
after some natural disaster the bank is going to be in as bad a condition as 
your house. The only way of purchasing goods will be with cash.

I should not at this time I am pro gun control. The caches described here all 
have weapons in them. I do believe that weapons should be stored in a safe 
place such as a cache be the weapons should be of the ether legal or home 
made variety to avoid conflict with the law enforcement bodies. A point to 
remember is that most guns were created for killing animals including humans. Do not store one if you don't think you are going to need one.

That about wraps up my introduction on cache's. The next part will be about 
what you should put in your cache. This information will be relevant to our 
up coming series on how to survive a nuclear holocaust.

It amazes me how people can be sooooooo dumb some times. I mean they go out 
and create a motive cocktail without having the slightest scientific 
knowledge and end up causing great harm to themselves. The idea behind this 
guess is to make you hobby of blowing up shit a safer one. This is not to say 
that I condone blowing up shit. It is that most anarchy texts have 
information on  how to make shit with the same fucking universal disclaimer 
stating "this is for information purposes only" but people ignore this and 
because there is no safety information available on what they are doing they 
end up causing harm to themselves and others. I will still state that I take 
no responsibility for the actions of people reading this information as it is the only way to cover my ass (not that in legal terms it is worth anything). So here is an introduction into the safety procedures that you should follow when making explosives and other chemical compounds.

1, Always make chemical compounds in small amounts. Some compounds can have 
a violent reaction and detonate rather then burn slowly. Small amounts may 
damage hands, eyes and your face but larger amounts can cause damage to your 
limbs, body and even take you life. compounds should also be made of coarser 
ingredients if possible as the smaller that particles the larger the surface 
area and the larger the surface area the more violent the reaction.
Also not that some of these compounds, even in small quantities are much more 
volatile than black powder. Black powder happens to be quite volatile but 
compared to some other compounds it is quite tame.

2, Many of the mixtures detailed in mine and other peoples recipes can be 
corrosive and or toxic. Corrosive materials can react with metal and can 
create dangerous and reactive compounds. You should also be aware of toxins 
as they can greatly affect the internal organs of the body. Be aware that 
toxins can enter the body via consumption, inhalation or in contact with the 
skin, in some cases proving to be lethal.

3. Make sure that you work are is tidy. Never keep chemicals out on you work 
space after they have been used to avoid spillage. If you do spill chemicals 
all over the place, clean them up immediately. Make sure that your equipment 
is clean and has no leftovers from your last session.

4, Grinding of chemicals should be done separately and in wooden containers. 
Some people also suggest ceramic tools but when working with potentially 
explosive chemical this is not a good idea. As with above, make sure they 
are clean before you use them.

5, Always mix your chemicals outdoors in a well ventilated area. Never mix 
chemicals in a glass, metal ceramic container to prevent a shrapnel hazard. 
Wooden container are the best as they are static free and hopefully wont 
shatter into sharp pieces when subjected to an explosion. Always use wood to 
stir implements. Special care has to be taken with wooden implements to make 
sure that any residue absorbed if removed before being used with different 
chemicals.
A good way of mixing powders is to place the chemicals on a piece of paper 
and one by on lift up the corners so the so the chemicals are mixed in the 
middle.

6, In general it is not a good idea to store compounds or reactive chemicals 
as some may become more reactive over time. If compounds must be stored do so 
in a cardboard or plastic container and keep in a cool dry place away from 
all children, pets or other people who don't know the meaning of look but 
don't touch.

7, Make sure that the stoppers and screw caps on containers that you are 
storing chemicals in are clean as the friction caused by opening and closing 
them may be enough to ignite some compounds that are left over in them.

8, Make sure that there is no source of ignition near you work space. This 
includes heaters, electric motors, electrical switches and stove pilot 
lights. Most of all don't smoke near the chemicals. On the issue of smoking 
and drug use it is not a good idea to be under the influence while carrying 
out any out any experiment but you knew that already. Right???

9, Make sure you protect yourself. I medieval knights suite, while the 
ultimate in safety is impractical. At bare minimum use some shatter proof 
glasses. A welding face mask provides better protection. Also make sure you 
wear a all cotton (or hemp) lab coat and some form of plastic gloves.

10, Be prepared for a fire. A fire extinguisher is very good. A glass fibber 
fire blanket can also come in handy. At bare minimum has a bucket of water 
and a hose.

11, Never, under any circumstances, use metal or glass casings for fireworks. 
Metal and glass shrapnel can travel a long way, through body parts that you'd 
rather they didn't. I don't know why you would as they are quite heavy and 
will only downgrade the performance of your projectile.

12, Don't rely on the information provided. Make sure you know what you no 
what the chemicals can do. Try to research the chemicals you are going to 
use. If you are completely in the dark about what could happen then don't 
conduct the experiment as the accuracy of information can vary immensely. 
Try to stay away from the anarchist cookbook as most of the information is 
for entertainment purposes and the person who wrote it just ripped 
information from anywhere and placed his name on it without doing any 
investigation into the chemical reactions that take place.

13, Wash your self and you clothes after handling chemicals. don't forget 
you ears and nose.

14, If a device you create fails to activate, don't try to get it going, 
leave it for 30 minutes (minimum). If you know that the chemicals are not 
going to react with water spray it with water. dig a 1 meter hole (min) and 
bury make sure you use a long handled shovel to handle it at first. Duds 
have been found that after years of exposure to rain and weathering that 
they were still reactive. Pay very special care to the disposing of live 
chemicals.

15, Treat all chemicals and mixtures with respect. Don't drop them or handle 
them roughly. Treat everything as if it may be friction- or shock-sensitive. 
Always expect an accident and prepare accordingly, even if all these safety 
precautions are observed. Several people on the net have received stitches, 
lost fingers, or been severely burned. Some of them were very scrupulous in 
their safety precautions and had many years' safe experience with 
pyrotechnics.

That wraps up my introduction on safety. Please follow these to ensure a long 
life of blowing up shit.

		       A Sentence About Tyranny

		       Egy mondat a zsarnoks gr˘l

		      Translated by George Szirtes

	  Where tyranny exists
	  that tyranny exists
	  not only in the barrel of the gun
	  not only in the cells of a prison

	  not just in the interrogation block
	  or the small hours of the clock
	  the guard's bark and his fists
	  the tyranny exists

	  not just in the billowing black fetor
	  of the closing speech of the prosecutor,
	  in the "justified use of force"
	  the prisoners' dull morse

	  not merely in the cool postscript
	  of the expected verdict
	  there's tyranny
	  not just in the crisp military

	  order to "Stand!" and the numb
	  instruction "Fire!", the roll of the drum,
	  in the last twitch
	  of the corpse in the ditch

	  not just in the door half open
	  and the fearful omen,
	  the whispered tremor
	  of the secret rumour

	  the hand that grips,
	  the finger before the lips,
	  tyranny is in place
	  in the iron mask of the face

	  in the clench of the jaw
	  the wordless O
	  of pain and its echo
	  and the tears

	  of silence-breeding fears,
	  in the surprise
	  of starting eyes

	  tyranny supplies
	  the standing ovation, the loud
	  hurrahs and chanting of the crowd
	  at the conference, the songs

	  of tyranny, the breasts
	  that tyranny infests,
	  the loud unflagging
	  noise of rhythmic clapping,

	  at the opera, in trumpet cry,
	  in the uproarious lie
	  of grandiose statues, of colours,
	  in galleries,

	  in the frame and the wash,
	  in the very brush,
	  not just in the neat snarl
	  of the midnight car

	  as it waits
	  outside the gates

	  tyranny permeates
	  all manners and all states,
	  its omnipresent eyes more steady
	  than those of old Nobodaddy,

	  there's tyranny
	  in the nursery
	  in father's advice, in his guile,
	  in your mother's smile

	  in the child's answer
	  to the perfect stranger;

	  not just in wires with barbs and hooks
	  not just in rows of books,
	  but, worse than a barbed wire fence
	  the slogans devoid of sense

	  whose tyranny supplies
	  the long goodbyes;
	  the words of parting,
	  the will-you-be-home-soon-darling?

	  in the street manners, the meetings
	  and half-hearted greetings,
	  the handshakes and the alarm
	  of the weak hand in your palm,

	  he's there when your loved one's face
	  turns suddenly to ice
	  he accompanies you
	  to tryst or rendezvous

	  not just in the grilling
	  but in the cooing and the billing,
	  in your words of love he'll appear
	  like a dead fly in your beer

	  because even in dreams you're not free
	  of his eternal company,
	  in the nuptial bed, in your lust
	  he covers you like dust

	  because nothing may be caressed
	  but that which he first blessed,
	  it is him you cuddle up to
	  and raise your loving cup to

	  in your plate, in your glass he flows
	  in your mouth and through your nose
	  in frost, fog, out or in
	  he creeps under your skin

	  like an open vent through which
	  you breathe the foul air of the ditch
	  and it lingers like drains
	  or a gas leak at the mains

	  it's tyranny that dogs
	  your inner monologues,
	  nothing is your own
	  once your dreams are known

	  all is changed or lost,
	  each star a border post
	  light-strafed and mined; the stars
	  are spies at window bars,

	  the vast tent's every lamp
	  lights a labour camp,
	  come fever, come the bell
	  it's tyranny sounds the knell,

	  confessor is confession,
	  he preaches, reads the lesson
	  he's Church, House and Theatre
	  the Inquisition;

	  you blink your eyes, you stare
	  you see him everywhere;
	  like sickness or memory
	  he keeps you company;

	  trains rattling down the rail
	  the clatter of the jail;
	  in the mountains, by the coast
	  you are his breathing host;

	  lightning: the sudden noise
	  of thunder, it's his voice
	  in the bright electric dart,
	  the skipping of the heart
	  in moments of calm, 
	  chains of tedium,
	  in rain that falls an age,
	  the star-high prison-cage

	  in snow that rises and waits
	  like a cell, and isolates;
	  your own dog's faithful eyes
	  wear his look for disguise,

	  his is the truth, the way
	  so each succeeding day
	  is his, each move you make
	  you do it for his sake;

	  like water, you both follow
	  the course set and the hollow
	  ring is closed; that phiz
	  you see in the mirror is his

	  escape is doomed to failure,
	  you're both prisoner and gaoler;
	  he has soaked, corroded in,
	  he's deep beneath your skin

	  in your kidney, in your fag,
	  he's in your every rag,
	  you think: his agile patter
	  rules both mind and matter

	  you look, but what you see
	  is his, illusory,
	  one match is all it takes
	  and fire consumes the brake

	  you having failed to snuff
	  the head as it broke off;
	  his watchfulness extends
	  to factories, fields and friends

	  and you no longer know or feel
	  what it is to live, eat meat or bread
	  to desire or love or spread
	  your arms wide in appeal;

	  it is the chain slaves wear
	  that they themselves prepare;
	  you eat but it's tyranny
	  grows fat, his are your progeny

	  in tyranny's domain
	  you are the link in the chain,
	  you stink of him through and through,
	  the tyranny IS you;

	  like moles in sunlight we crawl
	  in pitch darkness, sprawl
	  and fidget in the closet
	  as if it were a desert,

	  because where tyranny obtains
	  everything is vain,
	  the song itself though fine
	  is false in every line,

	  for he stands over you
	  at your grave, and tells you who
	  you were, your every molecule 
	  his to dispose and rule.

	  (1950)
