Re: And Invite The Royals While We're At It...
I've always heard of Plum Island in the context of anthrax research, and for all I know Ebola and dengue fever too. Whatever's going on out there, the rumble is it's bio-warfare related.Haven't heard about the Montauk Project. I'll hafta ask my man Carl (who, by the way, is far from being a wild-eyed radical, but still staunchly maintains that TWA 800 was taken out by a missile).Did I ever tell you about our little neighborhood apocalyptic menace? It's called the Blue Grass Chemical Activity, and it's a humongous (miles across) fenced expanse of rolling farmland, much bigger than our small city, just on the edge of town.Didja ever wonder where old nerve gas delivery systems (artillery shells, etc) go to die? Right here. You vant noive gas? Vat kind noive gas you vant? GB? VX? The back of our phone book has a detailed 6-page evacuation plan by city sector "in the unlikely event of blah blah blah". Go Zone 5-A! We rool!Funny thing is, people joke about being "upwinders" or "downwinders" but it doesn't affect property values one bit. This is the fastest growing city and county in Kintuckie. Go figure.

Zone 5-A? Cooooool! :)Oh, and you don't have to ask yo' man Carl about the Montauk Project. Just do a Google search for "Montauk Project" and you'll turn up the most amazing stuff. :)I'll have to tell you about the time I brought out-of-state visitors out there to see the place, and we were set all set to go through the fence and walk the some-odd miles to the old facility and break in. But John wussed out and wouldn't get out of the car. And then a government-type car came from out of NOWHERE, and John hollered for us to pile back in the car and then he burned rubber outta there. :)-- Nanaea
