Psst: The super-secretive National Security Agency is about to build a huge, $1.9 billion data center at Camp Williams, Utah, to help spy on communications worldwide.

The planned work there is so sensitive and classified that Utah's congressional delegation is declining to talk about it, saying it doesn't want to accidentally step over any lines about what can and cannot be disclosed. They referred inquiries to the NSA, which provided only a brief statement confirming the center is coming to Utah.

My baseball coach joined the FBI when I was in high school because he went on an LDS mission and spoke a language they needed in an upstanding citizen. On first glance, this is a win-win for the state and the fed.

[glock rocks]

bonk

[glock rocks]

Camp Williams is a Utah National Guard facility located in the extreme south end of the Salt Lake Valley. They practice with their howitzers and Apaches there...

[SouthTexas]

And you are applying?

[Tainan]

Shhhhhhhh!.......its a secret!

[Tainan]

The Mormon church Language Schools are among the best, if not THE best, currently in operation in the USA. Quite a few ‘government’ groups send their personnel there instead of DLI in Monterrey. The folks coming out of the Mormon school possess a high level of ability right from the git-go.

[Always Right]

mmm, why isn’t this in Murtha’s district?

[angkor]

I once drove many many miles west of SLC on the old Pony Express road, and I noticed that there’s some strange stuff out there in the desert.

[glock rocks]

I only speak four languages. Probably not qualified. I drive a truck and don’t own a Subaru.

[glock rocks]

Yessir. The Pony Express trail drifts out in BLM land, where we go to shoot clays in the desert. Lots of weird stuff out there... unmarked vertical mine shafts in the middle of the puckerbrush... gotta love the desert. There’s an extinct volcano out there somewhere. I’m talking cinder cone. I’ve been to the top of it in an old F350 in 4L, and you think I can find it on a map?

[devane617]

PLEASE....I want a job in this facility....Some of you spy types....hire me....

[glock rocks]

The folks coming out of the Mormon school possess a high level of ability right from the git-go.

Yes they do. And they're even better when they return from their stint...

Ferris Bueller, you're my hero.

“responsive, reliable, effective and expert signals-intelligence and information-assurance products and services” to enable “network-warfare operations to gain a decisive information advantage for the nation and our allies under all circumstances.”

I thought Arthur Anderson was out of business???

parsy, who crossed the road

[Technocrat]

Pahvant Butte?

Frisco Peak is a really big one. Great hang gliding launch too!

[Right Wing Assault]

The real secret is that it isn’t actually in Utah.

[Strategerist]

Probably the strangest place is Dugway Proving Grounds.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

That must be where they keep the crashed UFOs and the alien bodies.

[angkor]

>>>> Probably the strangest place is Dugway Proving Grounds. <<<<<

Yea, I recall seeing Dugway out across the huge expanse of desert, it looked like a mirage out there.

[glock rocks]

Smooch.

West side of the Stansbury’s and we approached from the south from Skull Valley Goshute land. Way too long ago for more detail than that...

[Strategerist]

They did a lot of chemical weapons testing out there, accidently killed a bunch of sheep with nerve gas in the 60s, I think. Rumors of other black stuff going on at Dugway.

[glock rocks]

Oooh. Thank you brother. I’d forgotten to unzip my pressure suit. Coulda been rude.

[NormsRevenge]

I’d like to work for NSA, they are a great bunch of guys and gals. :-} (/KissUpMode)

[glock rocks]

They never did admit responsibility for killing the sheep (though they did), but they quietly paid the Basque ranchers plenty for em anyway. I quit camping out there anymore. The Uintahs are much nicer anyway.

[glock rocks]

Oh, I agree. They’re really something :o)

[Brad's Gramma]

don’t own a Subaru.

Not what you told ME, glock..

Definitely not Democrats. Unless it's regarding domestic spying on Right Wing Extremists.

[Brad's Gramma]

[tubebender]

Sure... post the warning on a thread miles away from Daytona. I posted a reply here a couple of hours ago and it was intercepted by the “Mountain”

[glock rocks]

I see the need to load google earth. Thanks for the tips.

[NormsRevenge]

LOL.. Guilty!

Good luck and here’s to good weather!

[glock rocks]

FR is line of sight? Sheesh, I hate this HD conversion. Thank goodness for analog satellites, eh?

[LucyT]

Don’t tell anyone, but there’s a Big Spy Center coming to Utah.

Thanks Slings and Arrows.

[SouthTexas]

You’ll probably be required to buy a Chrysler.

[unkus]

That must be where they keep the crashed UFOs and the alien bodies.

I heard they moved some of the secret stuff from Area 51 to this part of Utah.

BTW, Bill Clinton was kept in the dark about much of our secrets there.

Now that we have an illegal alien in the White House, it’s probably totally off limits to him.

[tubebender]

I've had Google Dirt for years and years. Hell I've been to your house just as Billy Bobs Pizza was delivering...

[azishot]

THANKS, LUCYT! I PROMISE NOT TO SAY ANYTHING TO ANYONE ABOUT THE BIG SPY CENTER.

[Daffynition]

Another one? Goodness sake ...aren’t three enough?

It's them hot, hot, hot Utah Wimmins.

[Quix]

Jinda ma?

[dragnet2]

1.9 billion?

I’m surprised the government can do anything without spending 5 or 10 billion.

[Brad's Gramma]

Studebaker, STUDEBAKER!!!!!!

[SouthTexas]

I don’t think that’s government approved.

[Brad's Gramma]

Silly me......

[SouthTexas]

I’m sure anything with more cylinders than wheels will be banned.

[Brad's Gramma]

Well, I guess....we can all just walk.
