Sneaky rich and influential people.
Here’s a snippet worth noting on your bug out maps and worth checking out in your area.
Y’know how we have already debated the White Flight phenomena from many Brit cities mirroring what happened in the US, and the increase in the wealthier parts of society moving either way out of town to semi self-sufficient small holding or gated communities in the suburbs .
Well it appears that some of our captains of industry are thinking laterally just as we do. For many years companies have been storing their archived documents in file storage facilities, these used to be modest above ground warehouses perhaps with a bit of climate control built in. But since the early 90s they have been storing data on electronic data systems as well as paper copies. Magnetic tapes, Floppy Discs, CDRs, Flash drives, Hard drives etc have all become the normal methods of data storage and this has given the rich, powerful and influential another tool for their own use.
Most of the modern Data storage facilities for various reasons are subterranean, In Kansas USA old salt mines that cover dozens of minds of underground passages are used by banks, government agencies, data storage companies etc, but in the UK though a bit of space is available in old salt minds most data storage companies are using “ alternative†locations.
Like closed down London underground stations, former government nuclear bunkers, old BT underground facilities, sneakily dug extra tunnels accessed from the London underground like Abbey Data Storage at Bellsize Park, a big white painted structure now used as Data Storage facilities. Also the former LUL stations like THE STRAND are being rented or bought by corporations.
So why do I mention places like these and other DATA STORAGE facilities.
Well a friend who worked as a security guard for a few years told me that for some strange reason many (not all) of these facilities have not only been fitted out with temperature and humidity control systems, but also AIR filtration systems, and oddly enough some companies have built ҠAdmin Staff Ҡareas complete with toilets, kitchens, comms, cookers, seating and even some have camp beds. Some have locked steel cupboards that he believed (via 5 or 6th hand so totally unconfirmed) food rations, clothing, first aid kits, flashlights, long life batteries etc kept for staff in emergencies.
Dunno how your minds work but mine suggests this screams of big business making a few extra in town bolt holes to run to if something happens and they cannot get out quick enough.
Ergo I suggest those of you tasked with looking for useful locations to act as reserve BOLs may wish to do research in your area for Data storage facilities !!!
*For reference in the book “Waiting for the end of the world†by Richard Ross he comments on page 66 that enough extra secret tunnel space was created to house over 10,000 people who gained access to these shelters via LUL stations without drawing attention to themselves.
