It's no secret that secret planes and equipment are developed and tested there. As longs as it's my government doing work to protect this country I don't give a rat's A$$ what they do there. I rather have this country have the most absolute advanced spy gear on the planet than the other guys and believe we have have lots of enemies in this world. Not once have I complained that taxes were taken out of my paycheck. Take it and spend it on the best to protect me, my family and my country.

Interesting, thanks for that.

Had an Uncle who was a nuclear engineer for NASA and related how many of the east coast sightings of UFO's during the 50's and 60's actually came ffrom the space program but had nothing to do with alien technology. I think part of the UFO aspect was driven by people with soviet handlers to try to force information out of Uncle Sam, the rest was cover story by Uncle Sam.

I saw some of those ya-hoos one day--tin foil wrapped in a cone on their heads, it was on a video taken at some little store near by---never laughed so hard in my life. Reminds me of the days of sharpening razor blades in a pyramid, or fruit that will not spoil in one--

Don't you know that Area51 is really a UFO base for space aliens. Beam my up Scotty, there's no intelegent life down here.
