The bomb/drug/scam recipes are interesting too. Most of them are v. old. E.g. one scam involves stealing UPS packages off doorsteps: "...If yer lucky you might get a 9600 baud modem or something." Woo!

Generally drug/bomb recipes will have come from The Anarchists Cookbook, a 1980s publication I believe. Much of it was
plain wrong (how to bomb a bridge, the fact banana skins are hallucinogens - it was an april fool's joke etc). The info circulated wildly amongst BBS's in the 80-early 90s and inevitably in cyberspace nothing ever dissapears. Sure as hell impressed people at my middle school when we looked at it all though. The only real danger is out of many, many people, one might
actually use it. If it interest you, a good book which discusses it is "The Hacker Crackdown".
