decommissioned, abandoned underground missile complex.  The site was opened
many years ago by explorers and vandals, and in fact the technology therein
was nearly obsolete by the time the bases were completed in 1963, so there's
little "secret" about it beyond the location of these sites, which we will
not reveal here.</FONT></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://triggur.org/silo/sitec.html" href="http://triggur.org/silo/sitec.html" style="font-size: 11px;">triggur.org</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://triggur.org/silo/sitec.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/triggur.org/img/F414B2A0-1FFB-400B-93BB-C53839DBCBC2" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://triggur.org/silo/shaftc.html" href="http://triggur.org/silo/shaftc.html" style="font-size: 11px;">triggur.org</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://triggur.org/silo/shaftc.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/triggur.org/img/99E1FC02-865B-49A9-8569-60FBF9EE4D57" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="border-bottom: solid 1px #dcdcdc; white-space: nowrap; margin-bottom: 8px; background-color: #eeeeee ;background-image: url(http://clipmarks.com/images/source-bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 24px; line-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px;" ><a href="http://clipmarks.com/clip-to-blog/" title="see clips that are hot right now"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/clip-icon.gif" alt="" width="19" height="19" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px 4px; display: inline; border: none; float:none;" /></a>clipped from <a title="http://triggur.org/silo/shaft2c.html" href="http://triggur.org/silo/shaft2c.html" style="font-size: 11px;">triggur.org</a></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://triggur.org/silo/shaft2c.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/triggur.org/img/FEBBEDA2-F8B7-4760-806B-BC384BBB6198" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://triggur.org/silo/shaft2c.html"><A href="http://triggur.org/silo/cms39.gif">The stairs do continue down, but disappear into the
