Subject: [alt-beam] Re: LANL...
While it the espionage stuff is interesting, I highly doubt solar powered
robots are built in the same building as nuclear weapons. I'd suspect Mark
T's pie in the sky is far away from that sort of buisness. LANL is a bigg
place you know. Does tons of stufff. Nuclear weapons and Biomorphic robots
are just a few of them. no, I doubt thats the reason. Besides, the LANL web
site hasn't been updated in years it seems. Not much to see there anyway.
