Nope, you are wrong here. It's funny, this is the first time I've ever had to put the nix to an answer. It is definitely NOT pool. Do you wanna' try again? Or do you want an explanation now?
"Fulminant" means burning of a sort. People use it in a figurative way when speaking of a 'hot tempered' person. Fulminate of Mercury is a classic component of detonators in high explosives.
