Look at the bright side: you have learned a squib is not a puff of
smoke, that burning jet fuel can melt steel and that jets don't fly om
diesel fuel.

You are not qualified to make any of those statments, and I do not
believe any of them to be true.

On the other hand, a squib is *not* a puff of smoke (although squibs
*can* make puffs of smoke), burning jet fuel *can* melt quite a lot of
things, including steel (which is why they don't use structural steel in
jet engines), and jets fly on jet fuel, which is mostly kerosene, not
diesel.

Dan, by the way, *is* qualified to make those statements, most
specifically the last two. You might check the last of the newsgroups
you're cross-posting this to - most of the denizens of
rec.aviation.military have some experience in actual aviation, either in
flying, in maintaining, of in building jets.

Of all of the places to pick to say stupid things about jet aircraft,
r.a.m is one of the worst you could have picked...
