I READ AN ARTICAL A FEW YEARS BACK THAT THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT UNDER HAROLD WILSON ALLOWED THE RELEASE OF THE FLU VIRUS OVER THE NORTH SEA AND MEASURED ITS DRIFT INLAND (WITH THE AMOUNT FLU OUTBREAKS) ALL ALONG THE EAST COAST OF ENGLAND, THE IDEA BEING THAT IN THE EVENT OF NUCLEAR WAR THE GOVERNMENT WANTED TO KNOW THE POSSIBLE DRIFT OF RADIATION.........AS APPARENTLY ONE OF THE FIRST NUKES AIMED AT THE UK WAS OVER THE NORTH SEA CAUSING AN EMP KNOCKING OUT COMMUNICATIONS ect. I ALSO KNOW MIDDLESBROUGH WAS NUMBER 2 ON THE USSR's LIST !, SO I THINK IT IS NOT BEYOND COMPREHENSION FOR GOVERNMENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD TO DO SIMILAR EXERCISES ............ KINDEST REGARDS DAVE CASTER
