UncleDavid218 Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 Within a 100 mile radius we have: The Worlds first atomic explosion, Billy the Kid and Pat Garrett, the chile capitol of the world, Clyde Tombaugh (discoverer of the "nonplanet" Pluto), Werner Von Braun, and the future testing site of Future Combat Systems.

stringerB Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 My grandpa was a nuclear physicist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the 60s, 70s, and 80s  I was going to mention that, but it is out of the 100 mile radius. Glad to hear he retired before all of the security problems.  We are also home to the F111 Stealth fighters, soon to be the new home of the new YF22 Raptor jets. And our illustrious Governor is to be a presidential candidate. Ya'll can keep him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
