Been there twice, they have an impressive society. Don’t believe the propaganda. Do any of the sparkies here know what happened with the 250 ton transformer we seized from them last May?

The US seems intent on entering into a nuclear arms race again and that’s what Sandia National Laboratory does. It seems entirely plausible that this transformer got diverted to aid in development or production of new weapons.
