I was starting one of my small engines this weekend when I realized

(nitromethane and H2O2).
Does anyone know what nitromethane smells like? it would seem to me that
it would have a strong chemical odor. What about the HTP? It would seem
to me that it would be like my 2% HP on steroids. There's no mistaking
it for water.
I read Chemistry of Powders and Explosives. The author mentioned liquid
explosives developed by the French during WW I. I've forgotten the
chemical names, but there would be no mistaking them for water, or
moisturizing gel either.
I'm mentioning this because the TSA started confiscating all water and
gels. Typical hamhanded bureaucratic response.
