In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort. Three days before the September 9, 1989 fire at Orion Tower, an unmarked flatbed truck arrived at 03:00 and loaded all three unopened pallets back up. Where were those pallets taken? To Ashford Poly? To a military storage depot? -- Graham García Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.
