Glenn Reynolds links to this article on not one, but two different pipe bombings in San Diego.
I suspect the answer to the question “Why Haven’t We Heard About This” is to be found in the lack of blood and bodies.
No bleed, no lead.

Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Time to outlaw pipes?
If you look through American LEO Training websites there is a strong thread about bomb disposal, etc. I couldn’t understand the fascination, after all they didn’t have the IRA running around, etc.
A decade ago I went on a training course in Canada, which took me to Montreal. Speaking with the LEO types who were attending I was gobsmacked (technical term) by the number of bombing incidents they deal with that we never hear about; biker gangs, crazies, etc. There’s a lot more of it going on than we would think about.
