Here's an informative site on underground structures -- tunnels, military bases, caves, temples, unidentifiables -- and the technology, epistimology and religion of them: <http://www.sauderzone.com/ubtlinks.htm>http://www.sauderzone.com/ubtlinks.htm Nearly all of the world's most secret (and threatening) technology and archives of information are located underground. The relations of secrets to the subterranean, and conversely, that of liberating thought to the sky, are perhaps not accidental. The US government is expected under the new administration to replace the UK government as the most secrecy-crazed. As a writer noted recently, this customarily happens at the peak of a nation's power when it becomes totally paranoid about pandemic threats, especially from within. The US Secretary of Defense said a while back that technology empowers the citizenry, business, allies and enemies equally to threaten US power and thus must be controlled. The USG aims to totally control, or at least surveil, all forms of communication, not only within the US but globally, in an attempt to foresee looming threats. Underground communication intercept facilities which do not tap into the atmosphere or land, but rather the extremely long-waves transmitted deep within the earth, are considered to be a prime tool of omnicient surveillance.

He views news coverage of the Gulf War and Yugoslavian Bombing as such real-time CNN-pleasing propaganda performances orchestrated as military parades.
