I can reveal - on the basis of experience - that trying to get away with something like this anywhere within a considerable radius of DARPA headquarters is a very bad idea. That’s all I’m sayin’.
I had a late lunch at the Front Page across the street and there were agents everywhere. The urgency had passed, so everyone was kind of laid back. But you are correct: a certain building with no identifying name or constituency sits benignly only a few blocks away.
