Well I hope I am going to get some reply to my request for documentary source citations regarding detonation from somebody, somewhen.

Until then, just to stir you all up a bit, how about the claim I read somewhere (sorry, but in this case I cannot remember the source) that "in those cases where the cause of a detonation was clearly established, it always turned out to be an overload/double load of powder". Personally, I avoid extreme words like "always" or "never", but in this case, I am hoping to provoke a friendly and informed response.
