A listing entirely in Italian apparently offering rocketry chemicals and do-it-yourself motor tubes. All shipped from Italy. At least that's what I thought in looking at the picture (my Italian is somewhat rusty). :confused:

But before hitting the buy-it-now button, and inviting Homeland Security to pay me a visit, I figured I should have the listing translated.

Babblefish translation (copy below) seems to suggest that I'm not getting actual chemicals, but rather an instructional digital download, language unspecified.

The only thing not included is the "BRAIN, PRECAUTION AND ATTENTION (CE YOU MUST PUT!!! )"

I'm thinking if I'd been using my brain, precaution, and attention I probably wouldn't have bought this in the first place. ;)

Been a while since I needed my Italian, but from waht I read (I didnt use the translator) He seems to be selling the recipe/e-Book of what hes selling. Its very vague about anything non-digital like chemicals being included.

Keep in mind their in Marsala Thats in Sicily boys and girls :)
