lol, nevermind, it doesn't explain it.
wet shot provides it's own extra fuel (you tap into the fuel system).
dry shot depends on the car's fuel system to get fuel.

RE: wet vs. dry shot
I've heard wet shots are better for higher jetting numbers. I believe you shouldn't go over a 100 shot with a dry kit. I also heard wet kits are safer and better when going 125 or higher.

RE: wet vs. dry shot
Dry: good for 75 to 100 shot
Pros: easy install, cheaper
Cons: danger of lean conditions
WET: good for 100-150 shot more on built engine
Pros: higher horsepower, better protection against lean conditions
Cons: danger of pooling fuel in the manifold and blowing the manifold if a backfire happens, more $$$
Direct port: good for 100-150 shot (stock engine) 300 on built engine
Pros: good power gains, no fuel pooling
Cons: cost, install is more difficult, did i say cost

RE: wet vs. dry shot
I would suggest a wet kit, but every nitrous guy is different. The only real danger I will have with my set up is the puddling in my intake. With a wet kit, you have the danger of blowing your intake through your hood, with a dry kit, you have a bigger chance of blowing your motor. But when done right, any nitrous set up will work right with the right safety precautions.
