   P.S.: This is a work of fiction. The information obtained was found by doing a   
   simple internet search. The point of this story is that we need to improve our   
   emergency preparedness even if it means working with people outside of an   
   agency or the beltway.   
      
       
      
       
      
       
      
   "Mulder and Scully were contact by Condor and Belinda in Wisconsin about a   
   plan to explode an atomic bomb, a suitcase based one which would cause the   
   greatest terror. In the first part of our story, they arrive at Racine,   
   Wisconsin to meet their friends    
   and see what evidence they have that validates the threat."

   Condor: "Fox, here is the note we found left over from one raid.." The note   
   contains instructions on how to make a suit case atomic bomb as follows:   
      
       
      
   ·  CONSTRUCTION METHOD    
      
     1.. First, obtain about 50 pounds (110 kg) of weapons grade Plutonium at   
   your local supplier (see NOTE 1). A nuclear power plant is not recommended, as   
   large quantities of missing Plutonium tends to make plant engineers unhappy.   
   We suggest that you    
   contact your local terrorist organization, or perhaps the Junior Achievement   
   in your neighborhood.    
     2.. Please remember that Plutonium, especially pure, refined Plutonium, is   
   somewhat dangerous. Wash your hands with soap and warm water after handling   
   the material, and don't allow your children or pets to play in it or eat it.   
   Any left over Plutonium    
   dust is excellent as an insect repellant. You may wish to keep the substance   
   in a lead box if you can find one in your local junk yard, but an old coffee   
   can will do nicely.    
     3.. Fashion together a metal enclosure to house the device. Most common   
   varieties of sheet metal can be bent to disguise this enclosure as, for   
   example, a briefcase, a lunch pail, or a Buick. Do not use tinfoil.    
     4.. Arrange the Plutonium into two hemispheral shapes, separated by about 4   
   cm. Use rubber cement to hold the Plutonium dust together.    
     5.. Now get about 100 pounds (220 kg) of trinitrotoluene (TNT). Gelignite is   
   much better, but messier to work with. Your helpful hardware man will be happy   
   to provide you with this item.    
     6.. Pack the TNT around the hemisphere arrangement constructed in step 4. If   
   you cannot find Gelignite, fell free to use TNT packed in with Playdo or any   
   modeling clay. Colored clay is acceptable, but there is no need to get fancy   
   at this point.    
     7.. Enclose the structure from step 6 into the enclosure made in step 3. Use   
   a strong glue such as "Crazy Glue" to bind the hemisphere arrangement against   
   the enclosure to prevent accidental detonation which might result from   
   vibration or mishandling.    
     8.. To detonate the device, obtain a radio controlled (RC) servo mechanism,   
   as found in RC model airplanes and cars. With a modicum of effort, a remote   
   plunger can be made that will strike a detonator cap to effect a small   
   explosion. These detonator    
   caps can be found in the electrical supply section of your local supermarket.   
   We recommend the "Blast-O-Mactic" brand because they are no deposit-no return.    
     9.. Now hide the completed device from the neighbors and children. The   
   garage is not recommended because of high humidity and the extreme range of   
   temperatures experienced there. Nuclear devices have been known to   
   spontaneously detonate in these    
   unstable conditions. The hall closet or under the kitchen sink will be   
   perfectly suitable.    
     10.. Now you are the proud owner of a working thermonuclear device! It is a   
   great ice-breaker at parties, and in a pinch, can be used for national   
   defense.    
   Then Condor showed Mulder another note found on the effect of an explosion:

   [1] Vaporization Point    
      
   Everything is vaporized by the atomic blast. 98% fatalities. Overpress=25 psi.   
   Wind velocity=320 mph.    
      
   [2] Total Destruction

   Factories and other large-scale building collapse. Severe damage to highway   
   bridges. Rivers sometimes flow countercurrent. 65% fatalities, 30% injured.   
   Overpress=9 psi. Wind velocity=260 mph.    
      
   [4] Severe Heat Damage

   most available oxygen is consumed by the fires. 50% fatalities, 45% injured.   
   Overpress=6 psi. Wind velocity=140 mph.    
      
   [5] Severe Fire & Wind Damage    
      
   Residency structures are severely damaged. People are blown around. 2nd and   
   3rd-degree burns suffered by most survivors. 15% dead. 50% injured.   
   Overpress=3 psi. Wind velocity=98 mph.   
      
       
      
       
      
   Fox: "This is very specific information. We should coordinate with the   
   military as this would to heavy for FEMA to handle. Also, do you have an idea   
   where the site is they are planning to attack?"
