#1 Underground Homeless Cities: This reminds me of Futurama and the New New York mutants : )
Good for them though, sounds like they have a perfect off the grid kind of life!


#2 Missile Silos: So where do I sign up for one of these? It would make the perfect zombie
apocalypse bunker. Can you imagine all the food you could store where the
government kept the missile?


This was a great post : )
Thank you!

Wow, great information right there! Thank-you so much for adding to this thread, it's reasons like this that ATS is such a great forum!

Great info. Great pictures. Lived in L.A. for a long time and saw the rigs on Slauson and at the beach but never knew the rest of story. Wonder if the people in Bel Air know about this slant drilling. Seems kind of dangerous in such an earthquake prone area and Bel Air was hit hard in some specific and peculiar sections during the Northridge quake. Some homes just partially slid down the mountain.

Knew about the cell towers because a palm tree one went up just across the street while I was gone for several days. That was some months ago and now the 2 real palm trees next to it are wilted and actually leaning over like they're dying. They're old trees too - very tall, almost as tall (before drooping) as the tower. It's always good to be reminded of the dangers we take for granted.


Yeah, I'm starting to learn from talking with more people in my town that there are a couple "stealth cell towers" hidden away. In fact, there is one in the flag pole on my church's previous property!

I mean honestly we are so unconscious and tuned out most of the time, at least I know I am. Especially when I am driving a regular route. What else are we missing? Makes me worry. But I suppose the saying is dead on, "if you aren't worried you aren't paying attention."

There seems to be so many different levels of reality that we function in, truth just seems like a matter of perspective.

You're absolutely correct. It does make one pause to think of what ELSE we could be missing. Something for me to be thinking about on the way to school tomorrow.

That Missile Silo reason that you gave is one of the few reasons why I want one myself!!!

If you see those old pictures of LA and oil wells everywhere and now nothing,I don't think we sucked it up that fast.In my opinion they capped them and are holding them for future use after we use up the M.E oil first.

heres another example of how everything gets done under our nose's,with out telling us the dangers were faceing.
this is just one small area and notice how many of these things there are.
The closer to a radiating antenna you are, the higher the health risk there is. In an effort to increase channel availability for the increasing number of cell phone users, cells have to be made smaller. These are often known as microcells. In the past, cell towers typically covered a 10 mile cell. Microcells today are often less than one mile,the problem is these things are dangerous,these things emitt so much RF microwave power that they somethimes set on fire,as with the picture below,the level of radiation were all being exposed to is shocking,as we still dont fully understand the damage these are doing to us and these things can also emit low level sound vibrations,but its all being kept from us,in the name of profit.

For months Stuyvesant Town residents have been complaining about a droning hum that has made their apartments nearly unlivable. Management had dismissed the noise as an isolated insect infestation but a group of tenants unsatisfied with the improbable conclusion have discovered hundreds of illegal cell phone towers on the roofs of Stuyvesant Town. Tenants living near 331 First Avenue first noticed the noise shortly after the 110-building housing complex was purchased by Tishman Speyer back in 2006. "At first it was just mildly annoying and we assumed it was coming from the escort service run out of our neighbor's apartment," an irritated tenant tells us. "Then the noise became unbearable. It's impossible to sleep and the other night I walked into the kitchen and all of my pots and pans were stuck to the ceiling because of some magnetic force field!" Hundreds of calls were placed to Stuyvesant Town and within days management began telling tenants they had investigated the noise and said it was emanating from an infestation of "angry bees" that have taken over the building. Suspicious of Tishman Speyer's unusually quick and seemingly honest response, tenants decided to do some investigating on their own and took to the roof of the vibrating building. Much to their surprise they didn't find angry bees but hundreds of illegal cell phone towers that appeared to be property of T-Mobile which has a retail store at the same address. "I was shocked to see so many towers," a tenant tells us. "It's no wonder they don't let us on the roofs anymore, look what they've been hiding." Other tenants fear Tishman Speyer is abusing the Patriot Act and listening in on their conversations to evict tenants. "I was on my cell phone the other day making plans to join a friend while she went apartment hunting," says Alice O' Conner, a tenant residing near the cell tower forest. "The next day I got an eviction notice because of my new primary residence. They're insane!" Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney isn't surprised. "Companies like Tishman Speyer will do whatever they can to make a profit, even at the expense of the health and well-being of their residents. Cell towers on the roofs of residential properties are illegal because we don't yet know the health and environmental impact they have." When asked for comment on the cell tower controversy Tishman Speyer spokesman, Bud Perrone stated, "Cell phones? I'm still trying to figure out why my telegraph stopped working. Quit bugging me!"


Must watch video of DR Jack Walker,who explains his findings and linked illness's with these cell towers,hidden from you all.
so next time you all feel tired or abnormally stressed,moments of anxiety,or generally ill for no aparent reason,take a look around for those hidden radiation towers..these things are a massive problem,and very dangerous.

plus these cell towers are being linked to the death of bees around the world,and it proven that if you leave a cell phone on around a bee hive the bees wont go back to the hive

Several people have stated that info in this thread is "common knowledge." Okay, sure. I agree. It's *common* IF you know about it, right? If a person doesn't know about it, then it's *UNcommon.* That's how knowledge is. We each have our ILLUMINATED SPHERES of knowledge ---the stuff we KNOW. The gray area surrounding that illuminated sphere is the stuff we SUSPECT or think we know. The darkness around that is the stuff WE DON'T KNOW.

Each of our personal Illuminated Spheres is made up of *different* information. So, here's a cheers to the poster for putting a few things out there that I wasn't aware of. Sure, I already knew about cell towers, but not having EVER lived in L.A., I was impressed to learn that they had DISGUISED drilling. Okay, it's not a *conspiracy* to mask drilling operations, but it's something I wasn't aware of. So there's another few inches bigger my ILLUMINATED SPHERE became. Homeless in tunnels: yeah, it's been done before, and probably bigger under New York city, but the photos of homeless "dorms" under Las Vegas? Didn't know that. Probably suspected that, but that part of the gray area just became illuminated.

So, thanks again for an interesting post and please keep it up. Ignore all the know-it-alls who get angry, condescending and arrogant about their Illuminated Spheres. The reality is that most of their spheres probably aren't as well-lit as they might have you think.

As someone on another forum said, once you notice them they do look kinda stupid. I wonder what Maskelyne would have done with them - given enough sticky tape and empty washing up liquid bottles of course

WOW really intresting stuff
for all of those ppl wjho have a hard time believing such stuff.

theres a saying" the best place to hide somthing ir right under your nose"

we have hidden phone cells in the uk built into garage forcourt signs, i have been to bases which dont have sign posts to get to and have had my gps go nuts over it. a pain the the ass when you are a field service engineer with MOD contract, i have been to a run down company where eletronic gudance chips for missle systems have been made to do excel training, it is not as uncommon as you may think.



great thread

I live in a small town in texas that is about 1 1/2 or 2 hrs away from President Bush's ranch in Midland. Itis in the bible belt and for the most part a pretty Bible thumping place. (I say this only to help you understand why this is weird for me not as a criticism). The other day as I was driving my mom around (she has had a knee replacement and doesnt get out much so often me and my wife go get her and sometimes just drive around)
Noticed that a new building was being constructed in an area close by. As we drove by being that im in the construction/electrical buisness I looked at the building curious as to who contracted it...nosey I guess.. I realized that there are masonic symbols all over that building. Not really anything unusual but deffinately not the norm for said place tx. In a matter of 2 or 3 weeks of seing that building I have seen 3 more one being finished and very large with a welcome center . I have also seen a cadillac escalade with the mason symbol on the back in matching gold electroplate as the caddy emblem. Mabee I am reading to much into this mabee it isnt connected but it has all shown up recently along with another contractor freind of mine who said he was installing some "duct work" and gas lines into some underground "shelters" but that as with much dod and govt. bids he had no idea what they were doing, he only gets his part and others finish it. when ask he said the rooms were huge concrete bunkers. from what I can tell elsewhere there is a rumored fema camp here in this town also. hmmm all right under my nose...

This is ridiculous being able to just go to a real estate place and Buy a missile silo

Actually, it's not as glorious as it might sound.

Back during the Cold War we literally built thousands of those things, at an astronomical cost. However, since Detente we have abandoned them in accord to the numerous Disarmament Treaties we have signed with the Russian Commonwealth. The Military has auctioned them for pennies on the dollar, and not having been maintained in the past 20+ years have made them uninhabitable and dangerous. Most are entirely flooded, many are crumbling, some are partially caved in, and almost all of them are festering pits of Tetanus and Mold Spores.

However, there is an entire sub-industry that has been built up on converting these abandoned Missile Silos into habitable buildings for corporations and the rich. Many have been converted for long-term climate-controlled storage for film or even rare books, a couple have been turned into Data Centers, and yes, some have been turned into bachelor pads for the International Man of Mystery who wants to survive the Zombie Apocalypse in style and fashion. Buying a Titan Missile Silo, for instance, will run you a meager $200,000-350,000, however renovating it and making it habitable is another story, and hopefully you have 10x that much in liquid assets to throw into the endeavor.

On another note, I'm an Urban Spelunker and have found lots of neat "Secret" places underground in cities. I've found abandoned Subway Tunnels in cities that never had underground transit (because the American Car Companies bought out the companies building them at the turn of the 20th century and they've been abandoned since). I've found forgotten Speakeasies and Moonshine Distilleries that were walled up. My favorite are old Kennedy-era Civil Defense Bunkers that were paved over and forgotten about...with entrances now found in some store basement, or in an alley behind the 7-11 at the end of a Strip Mall.

Another thing missing off the list of Massive Secret Operations That Are Hidden All Around You is did you know that there are Top-Secret Military Installations in almost every city and town that is near a freeway between Military Bases? After Sputnik went up and spy satellites became common-place, the U.S. Military wanted to hide the placement of Missiles and other such weapons of war from Soviet eyes during the Cold War, so they started playing the "Shell Game" by shuffling Nuclear Weapons between Military Bases using normal, every-day semi-trucks. Of course, if your driver needs to take a leak you can't just pull over at the nearest Truck Stop or Rest Stop with a nuclear payload hidden in your rig...so the DoD commissioned the building of Top-Secret Waystations approximately every 30-60 miles along routes between Military Bases. They are generally nondescript warehouses surrounded by chain-link fences with razor wire at the top placed in Industrial districts near a freeway on-ramp/off-ramp. They provide a place for a truck driver with a sensitive and secure payload to take a break or get some sleep before continuing onwards. Even knowing about them, and knowing the general location (within a mile) of the one nearest me, it took me years to pinpoint exactly where the one was near me.

There is always more than meets the eye when one looks hard enough and keeps their mind wide open.

I find the cellphone towers hilarious!
I wonder what other things governments around the world try and camouflage! Although I do know of military bases around the world that are camouflaged with trees and the like so satellites and planes cannot find the bases when flying up above it.

S&F!!

Hm. I thought the cell phones and oil rigs were common knowledge.

There are training bases scattered here and there that people never know about. Some have facade operations that look like forestry stations or whatnot, but Mr Ranger isn't a Park Service guy - he's a special ops operator on guard duty.

I've seen a secret submarine pen that can accommodate one attack sub at a time that's up a major river, it's stocked out with enough parts and raw materials (and a big machine shop!) to make whatever they don't have on hand. Once a year a sub goes up the river and docks to make sure they can get there. If not, they have dredge boats that come in and clean out the tight spaces. Having seen one, I'd imagine there are several.

There are some government buildings with way too many antennas on top that are actually listening stations for a couple of the intel groups. These are scattered here and there. Some look like AM radio towers, but they've got more stuff on them than you need for the job.

Some universities have government-run functions that hide as research foundations.

If you live in the DC area, there's a spycraft class that runs twice a year, you can watch them doing exercises if you know what to look for.

Back when you could enter the checked area of airports without a ticket or taking off your shoes, you could, if you knew what you were looking for and were in the right airport at the right time, watch various counter-terrorism groups practice running tails on people, or doing passenger screening in the concourse. You get a lot of this in the DC area airports, and oddly, at Birmingham Intl.

There are commercial airports that are occasionally used to stage military operations that are disguised as civilian flights. BIE, again, is popular for this, or used to be.

If you live near a place with a lot of folk with really tight classifications, you tend to have people hanging out in bars near the facility that look like barflies but are there to see if anyone's soliciting information. Occasionally, you will see these folk try to get the new folk to blab about something they shouldn't, to check their leak potential. Were you to go to a bar near NGIA or around the LANL area, and start talking in a normal tone about something they find questionable, you'll have a new friend that wants to join the group for a few minutes while they check you out. It's generally pretty subtle, a few of them are pretty ham-handed at it. Oh, yeah, the Huntsville area is eat up with them, those guys are DIA.

There are at least a half-dozen data mining operations that I know of in the eastern US, they look like regular office buildings, more or less. The ones I know about are attached to SOCOM, so there's a civilian contract contingent running the hardware but it's supervised by some military branch. You're not allowed to wear uniforms to or from the building, but the cars still have base access stickers, so it's sort of a giveaway if you're looking for it. There's always a base in town that's known for housing some sort of SOC function - there's one in Tampa, for example.

edit: oh, yeah, if you live in the central NC area, there's a big wilderness park area that's used by CAG for selection, the right weeks of the year you will see selection candidates frantically wandering around with compasses, backpacks and rifles trying to find their next waypoint. There are also guys creeping around behind them keeping an eye on them. They generally go to areas that aren't heavily trafficked but if you were a deep-wilderness hiker, you might get caught in the middle of it. It would probably be pretty puzzling to watch.
