The Yemen Bomb Plot, i remember it. They stuffedPETN in an ink cartridge, in a printer, and wired in a cellphone to detonate it.

after the Fed-Ex toner cartridge bomb plot.

Please elaborate if possible? I lost 6 months of my life that year and that's a new one on me.

Around 2010 I think, after the Detroit "Panty bomber" episode anyway - there was a bunch of explosive packed toner cartridges shipped from Yemen (or Saudi?) - some were intercepted in Europe, but I believe some made it onto a plane bound for Chicago that was stopped before it arrived. I'm sure wikipedia has it on file - it was a big deal at the time, and shipping times from the EU went thru the roof as a result of the extra security precautions.
