When a group of astronomers bought a bunch of land in Transylvania County, N.C., to use the abandoned satellite dishes, they got a bonus: Thirty-five years' worth of leftover techno-wonders from the National Security Agency. Check out what they found, and largely can't identify.

I missed it the first time around- I know, double posting, bad, but what a cool link. Maybe this story is interesting enough to deserve two postings!

Damn! I searched three times to see if anyone had posted it first ("NSA," "National Security Agency," etc). And it turns out to be linked to the one post I hadn't already read today. Sorry. mathowie, kill it if ya want.

Can't see how someone would miss this the first time around. The first post was oh so clear! Shame on you, Aaron!
