Yes they have spoken to us on the record about it – we just have not put all the info here.

The whole thing seems a lil fishy.. these last 7 months I’ve learned to question EVERYTHING no matter how legit the story may seem.

Even so, figure ol’ Chip can afford more than a plastic shithouse on the outside of the facility. Guess it is an aerodynamics thing…

I know how to cut through the old dirt roads to get there. Iwas there about 33 yrs. ago standing right in front of the entrance which was abandoned at that time,if you know your way around there you can actually drive over to the cut area through the mountain and look down at the new turnpike highway at the traffic. The vehicles look like ants at the bottom.
