I must say, this is the most sucessful Something Awful-styled threadjack I've seen somewhere other than SA.

Next person that spams gets restricted and a PCR...

Who wants to be first?

Just out of interest, what sort of work is believed to go on in Area 51? I'd assumed it was some sort of aircraft testing zone, so I'm wondering how all the hazardous materials fit in.

[Boris Godunov]

Conspiracy loons like to believe the U.S. government is hiding evidence of alien visitors to Earth there.

[Harovan]

Ugh! Do you wish to say, that there's no freak show?

[Nubclear]

Or that the US government is genetically mutilating poor people in order to develop the perfect biological weapon.

Yes, I do occasionally read "Alternative News" sites.

[Adalbertus]

Tass,

The trick is oooold. Has been done with plague infected people already.

[Nubclear]

I used to read this alternative news site daily It was called "Wake up America!". But now when I search it up, I get some whacko saying hes a prophet and that China and Russia are going to attack the US and the US being evil will fall and Russia being evil will fall and China will rise. UGH.

So I continue searching, and I find it. It says it's moved...I click the link, and it's a porn site!!!! I want my Wake Up America! back

Some of the materials used to absorb radar can be quite toxic. The allegation by the employees that they were ordered to burn these materials on windward side of the base and they were forced to work in the toxic smoke. One of the workers got "scaley" skin (I assume it dried and cracked), others are reporting weird sicknesses and resperatory diseases.

Because it's a secret base, there no accounting or environmental regulation at the base

Area 51 is just an area the airforce tests it's new aircraft.

The F-22 was tested there along with the B2 bomber

[chequita guevara]

I wonder why they didn't test the JSF there.

[Dis]

well that is less secretive I'd imagine. They are developing it in conjunction with England (and maybe a few other European countries)

That's just stupid. Why would the government even bother to do that?

My theory on [democratic] government is, that it isn't capable of being actually malicious, just incompetent.
