In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort. 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. -- === Sun-mi Oliveira === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre "Hardware is temporary.
