Let's talk about the 'Special Projects' shipping pallets that arrived at Orion warehouse in 1984.

The warehouse workers were explicitly forbidden from unbanding the crates or checking inventory barcodes.
In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort.

Where were those pallets taken? To Ashford Poly? To a military storage depot?

My uncle worked the loading docks in Burbank and told the exact same story! Heavy steel crates with dual padlock shackles.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).

They weren't shipping vinyl records or promotional posters. That was rack-mount telecommunications hardware.
