I heard that there is an abandoned Nuclear Power Plant construction site with a fully completed conatainment building. I've seen the films of the testing they do for those things, and one of the tests was tossing an F-4 at the thing at about 600 knots or so. It left some black marks on the side. The site is called "Marble Hill" I'm not exactly sure where it is, but it's in the south east states somewhere. Perhaps you might think about acquiring space inside there. I also know the WPPS (Washington Public Power System, I think) was building a couple of plants that they gave up on after about 90% complete. You could also open a meet point up there somewhere! These were pretty close to Seattle. I'm sure that there are quite a few more unfinished plants around the country. In fact, I think they used one of these buildings to film one of those underwater movies. But then again, we run into the Cisco humidity problem. Chris A.
