crisis mgt. complex sounds better I guess.

There IS a difference.

Bunkers are for PHYSICAL protection (from bombs, grenades, bullets.. etc).

Command posts/Operation Centers are for the monitoring of a crisis during periods of actual or potential problems. Sometimes command posts are hardened like bunkers, but that is part of their design and everyday functionality.

Bunkers are like the one sitting underneath the GreenBriar Hotel in West Virginia (now apparently retired) where members of congress and other federal agencies would have been transported to ride a nuclear attack.

I think there is a difference, especially since I spent 12 months of my life locked up behind twin cypher locks on steel doors, where I worked 12 hour shifts monitoring the US and the world for any event that might be of particular interest to my leadership.

We were on the 2nd floor though... hardly "bunkered" against physical danger. They just had to pipe the sunlight in for us... :0)

As for being in the loop... I'm not seeing any evidence being presented here by anyone else. It's just Ken's "anonymous source" versus mine.

But since Ken isn't here in the nation's capital, I feel a bit more secure with my source.

The rest of you will have to figure it out for yourselves... or maybe even figure out a more appropo response, like "Big Deal" or "who cares?"..

Regards,

Ron
