Well, I found an old textfile that said
certain chemical suppliers would notify
authorities when an "unusual" order
request was made. The file cited B. Prieser
Scientific as a specific example.

Do you guys know anything about this kind
of stuff? Of course, it would be downright
stupid to order H2S04 and HNO3 and Toluene
in one order, but what about the 4 liters
of Nitric acid shipped to some joe that is
not part of any company at all (and also
turned out to be his first order!)

I looked at www.pyrotek.org, and it looked
sensational. It got me excited, but I had
to wonder... Could these kind of chemical
companies be too good to be true? Could some chemical companies be just a front just to
catch socialally deviant people?

Well, anyway... Maybe I am just too paranoid.

Thanks,

NiteLife

Why don't you order them from different suppliers? You can get things from places
other than pyro supplier.

Well the World Trade Center guys ordered nitric acid, sulfuric acid, glycerin, and urea, they didn't suspect them.

The awareness of the legal body has increased many folds since people started blowing shit up in the United States.
Order other stuff first, and do break up orders for bomb making materials over a span of time as well as with different compaanies. Hell, just to be safe, order using different names (if yo can manage it).
A little paranoia never hurt anyone.

Oh, forgot to mention, although the WTC guy
boldly ordered bomb combo, he used a pseudonym.

Yes, chemical companies are required to report certian chemicals over certian amounts because of the Methamphetamine Control Act and a few other laws. Chemical companies are not bound by other requirements (yet) but they are bound by legal liability.
That means a chemical company is held liable for YOUR misuse of a chemical. This is an evil gestapo tactic that has quite easily allowed the gov't to not make a law and still get chemical companies to regulate their own industry. So, you need to make yourself a known and trusted customer with legitimate uses for your chemicals other than some nefarious purpose.
Other than the threshold amounts for chemicals, only ordering suspicious combinations will get you reported.
