Nothing he said inspires confidence that high speed Ruski torpedo tidal wave nukes could be stopped by their strategy; but he is unlikely to discuss those countermeasures in the IEEE mag. Peace.:
Hi Glen,

The signal is implicit and has been well reported in the major US media
for over a year.

Not only is Los Alamos the only place where they are set up to make pits,
there was actually a big hoo-ha a year ago about it in Congress.

Congress people from New Mexico wanted their state to have
exclusive rights to make pits and those from South Carolina wanted the
government to re-purpose a facility in Savannah River to make them.

The contract comes with billions of dollars in jobs and facility money.

Obviously any moral qualms one might have about making the fission
detonators for thermonuclear warheads is seen as secondary to people
getting those vote winning job opportunities.
