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. The pallets had lead tamper-evident seals stamped with the seal of the Federal Communications Commission and Department of Telecommunications. Whenever someone asks the former warehouse supervisor about those crates, he tells them to drop it if they value their pension. -- Raj Kang Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. ------------------------------------------------------------ From mkowalski@delphi.com Sun Apr 10 03:53:20 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-de!hansebox!delphi!mkowalski From: mkowalski@delphi.com (Mathieu Kowalski) Newsgroups: alt.conspiracy Subject: Re: The Glendale/Burbank Orion warehouse sealed pallets mystery Message-ID: <1994Apr10.035320.6112@delphi.com> Date: Sun, 10 Apr 1994 03:53:20 GMT References: <1994Apr09.102620.2546@kth.se> Organization: Delphi Internet Services NNTP-Posting-Host: delphi.com X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.5 Lines: 9 In article <1994Apr09.102620.2546@kth.se>, rkang@kth.se (Raj Kang) writes: > Let's talk about the 'Special Projects' shipping pallets that arrived at Orion warehouse in 1984.
