The National Security Agency's $2 billion mega spy center is going up in flames.
Technical glitches have sparked fiery explosions within the NSA's newest and largest data storage facility in Utah, destroying hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment, and delaying the facility's opening by one year.
And no one seems to know how to fix it.

Jenny Agutter was pretty hot in that movie.
Everything burns..
how fortuitous....
Great post, but I don’t believe it.
I think all the revelations triggered outrage, which levied MUCH greater scrutiny on ANY operatios on-going at UDC.
My blind guess is this is all B.S. that has the goal of putting the public back to sleep about what’s going on out there:
“Ha ha, burn on those spy dummies, now they can’t do anything at all..! Hey who’s racing on NASCAR..?”
Ah...no.
Maybe this is where they’re hosting the Gangrapecare site.
Oh, darn...
pity
/s
I don’t believe this is an accident, not for the same expensive destructive event to happen over and over and over. At least I hope no one committee is that dense. Maybe someone ‘under orders’ to destroy the whole affair, but still provide ongoing employment. Reminds me of the Ghost Towns in China, beautiful grand sweeping neighborhoods and office tower monoliths all completely empty. Why? to keep the peasants employed and cooperative with the regime.
OH NOOOOO!
True.
Whatever does the trick. Could be akin to those Pali “work accidents”.
We’re in the very best of hands, perhaps as good as those on overwatch prior to 9/11.
The chinese OWN our power grid. They’ve been playing in
the control systems remotely for years. They would be primary
suspects in this type of sabotage...and they might be sending a
message about payback. We keep monkeying with the debt and
their portion of it and they take more important portions of the
system offline.
I’ve been giggling ever since I read about that a few hours ago. I mean all the passwords!!!
And these people think they are going to digitize all our medical records? And that they’re going to kibbitz by Android phones on every doctor’s appointment?
That’s a task involving...what?...about fifty thousand times as much data as signing people up for Gangrapecare?
Thermite?
OK so at UDC they spent $2,000,000,000 right? And have had 10 technical episodes, each costing $100,000 each, right? So that’s 100/2,000,000 = 1/20,000 = 0.0002 .
And that’s not a 2% budgetary loss, no. It’s also not a 0.2% budgetary loss. It’s 0.02 % out of their budget —a ROUNDING ERROR. It’s what UDC spends on videos and popcorn.
I am supposed to believe UDC is “burning down” over a rounding error?
This story —a good FR post— is a reporter cooking up a very catchy headline over B.S. that some very smart and very dishonest NSA public affairs officer handed him.
They’re out there crapping on the Constitution and raping Lady Liberty all night every night, totally unabated, and they’re doing it in grand style, with multiple shifts.
And they lied for decades, and they’re doing that right now, too.
Gee it is amazing what that global warming can cause. Seriously though, bout time humans came to grip with whats spewing out of Fukushima. Ignorance is not bliss.
what we used to call psychological warfare perhaps?
were far more burned.... that it is... I sense.
