It may be of interest to know that the Metropolitan area of London was designated Area 51 in c.1952 by the British state for the purposes of the ROTOR early warning system. A large map with the subdivisions clearly marked (51a, 51b, 51c, etc) can be seen at the "secret" nuclear bunker built in 1952 near Ongar, Essex. This bunker complex was part of a set of bunkers built throughout Britain to house the Cold War warning system control, and the development of a site for the London/SE area was overseen initially by the Air Ministry and the "Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company was one of two companies who were asked to work on the project." Philosophically speaking (or perhaps even religiously) research suggests that the number '51' has a somewhat ontological meaning, that of 'mostness' or 'extremes' or 'extremities' of whatever it occurs at. I can well imagine this being applied to a 'very secret' site, with the 'longest' runway, examining extremes of life-forms, etc. -**** Posted from RemarQ, http://www.remarq.com/?c ****- Search and Read Usenet Discussions in your Browser
