    Ovidio, I can't help wondering how you can be sure that shell has been deactivated? Do you know this for a fact from your father or grandfather, or is there some evidence of the casing being opened at the bottom?

    At the very least you have an impact(?) fuse there that may still be live, even if the explosive charge in the shell was removed.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
