Where was this camp when I was a kid?

From CNet:

There truly is something for everyone in summer camp these days. Just in time for July 4, The New York Times reports on a summer camp that’s a blast. The University of Missouri-Rolla engineering school offers a Summer Explosives Camp that teaches campers how to blow things up.
From watermelons to tree stumps to a 50-foot-high wall of quarry rock, the controlled mayhem serves a purpose, to boost the dwindling ranks of mining and explosives engineers.

Now granted we probably blew half that stuff up at Hidden Acres or in Matt’s backyard without paying for a camp – but camp would have been a lot more fun if we had been able to blow stuff up without getting in trouble.
