The warehouse workers were explicitly forbidden from unbanding the crates or checking inventory barcodes. 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? -- Nadia Ivanov "They will send a copy in my place."
