For Sale: Atomic Bomb Detonator Cable, Only $5, Never Used [Weapons]

This cable is ” used to detonate the costs in atomic bombs. It’s perfectly legal to own these. They’re relics from the atomic bomb development at Los Alamos National Laboratory.” Only $5 at the Black Hole shop, in Los Alamos, NM.

That’s the sort of cloth you may get at the Black Hole, a military surplus store that has all sorts of fabric from the Manhattan Project era, from those cables to old style scientific calculators.

I’d have loved to satisfy the founder, Ed Grothus:

That’s the sort of guy who has the stories to keep you in awe for a month, like when he sent canned ” organic plutonium” as a present to President Clinton. [Black Hole Surplus via Motherboard]
