1. Can any of you remember a bomb threat that actually resulted in a bomb being detonated or even being found?

I have to admit I had never really heard of bomb threats as a thing until my final year of high school when we had a music-exchange visit with an American HS (in Rockford, Illinois). Before we went south, we had to read and sign their HS student handbook. I was shocked to see that there was a formal policy and procedure for handling bomb threats - something that had simply not occurred to me in my safe, cozy HS in the great white north. Made me wonder about the frequency of such events in the big, bad USA.
