   Antimatter is not touchy at all, provided you keep it confined properly.   
   It's dangerous, yes, but in a predictable way that can be dealt with by   
   careful engineering.  The problem with sensitive explosives, like liquid   
   ozone, is that they're so unpredictable -- they don't give you any way to   
   improve the situation.
