This question goes out to Mike Sanders. How do you get to go on base when from what everyone says it would be easier to get into Ft. Knox for a free sample ? Is it because you write for VFN or do you have contacts or work connections? Just curious, not busting chops or planning any invasions...

I made some contacts a number of years ago with doing different articles for several publications on the FD. They have actually been coming to Apple Blossom on a routine basis, bringing a variety of rigs over the years. The security aspect is tough, meaning they require information and when going to the facility I must follow certain procedures. I will say that the FD staff has been extremely flexible and nice, and excited to see there is interest in their department and apparatus.
