Surely the photograph of the Houses of Parliament on the top of the box
should convince any sceptic of the "gunpowder's" authenticity...

Subject: Odd finds in libraries
Dear all,
You may be interested in this item about a find in the British Library from
the BBC website
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/uk/newsid_1886000/1886016.stm
which I think must contain the Library Quotation of the Month:
"The British Library says it does not have an explosives licence."
Well I *am* relieved!
