      Right? I was surprised at the use of ‘confiscated’ in that sentence

    I wonder if it was intentional. Lose it in some big warehouse or storage facility until everyone died of old age.

      Also, paper records. They don’t last.

      There is a nuclear waste dump in PA that the Army has been cleaning up. When they started the initial cleanup they were surprised to find more buried than what they had on record.

      Turns out some of the old paper records literally fell apart. Combine that with just how need to know the US was about everything nuclear, some radioactive waste happened to fall through the cracks.

    Oh I’m sure somebody knew they were there and they just kept their mouths shut.
