I think the use of dynamite to dig cesspools was made illegal about 20 years ago. I remember hearing dynamite explosions but they weren't as loud as the one yesterday. This reminds me of another mystery which occured in Hilo some years ago. A UFO was reportedly seen by many people. This was said to resemble a rocket or missle as it streaked across the sky near the airport. There was no explanation either from the military or civilian authorities. I found the article linked below. One witness said it was very loud so perhaps there is a connection.
