who wants to take a nucular vacation?
so found out about this place called greenbrier, apprently it's an old bunker from the cold war that was made to house all of congress accordin to a website
"Serendipitously, the bunker and the West Virginia Wing of the Greebrier were completed just in time for the Cuban missile crisis of October 1962. This remained the only occasion the shelter ever went on full alert. As the Cold War played out over the decades, Project Greek Island was quietly maintained and updated by the Army Signal Corps and sworn-to-secrecy Greenbrier staff. Incredibly, the government employees posed as on-site TV repairmen and had orders to blend in with the townsfolk. No matter how patriotic these government employees were, serving their country by posing as TV repairmen in White Sulphur Springs, W. VA must have been the Cold War equivalent to directing traffic or walking a third shift sentry beat. "
how cool would this be to tour? it's in west va, bout 5 hours away, and a weekend would be bout $300 which r0x
