This genius is teaching the future leaders of our country. I'm glad that Dubya has fixed all the problems with education.

Colla found the 40-mm round while hunting years ago and "obviously he didn't think the round was live," said Dennis Huston, who teaches computer design with Colla.

Yea, no kidding!

That's one of those situations where you assume it IS live! Yup, definitely a darwin award candidate |crazy|

Gives you and idea of how big a shell like that is. I find it amazing no one was hurt other then the teacher. Hum, does he get disability now? I have seen 1st hand (no pun intended) shit like this going off and man those kids ears must have been ringing for hours. Think of it like this, a 50 cal round will blow a hole right through a truck engine like it was butter from 1 mile away and I have one on my desk :) (yes its live but I don't let anyone play with it). Its only about 4 inchs long. This thing is like 20 times the size. http://www.archives.gov/research/afr...s-wwii-253.jpg

That is just incredible. Always someone doing something more stupid than the next guy.
