It could have been done anywhere. Los Alamos was for sale at the time. It was a private school
that had a hard time getting and keeping teachers because of the war.
There were deals like the Quebec Agreement and the Anglo-American Declaration of Trust about
collaborative efforts in developing sources to mine and process uranium and to develop alloy
tube technology. By working together they saved the extra expense of building their own separate
facilities. The desert location made it a little more secure.
If you want to say the Americans don't deserve the credit come out and say it.
Of course they deserve some credit.
Some credit? Ask the Japanese who did it.
Can't you read. I said that it was a

Quoted message said:How about putting a man on the moon? Who did that?
It was a NASA project, assisted by experts from a the US, canada, Britain and Europe.
Yea and the Chinese assisted building the Trans Continental Rail Road as well. I believe we call it
CHEAP labor.
You may recall that the US recruited a bunch of German rocket

You must be psychic. I'm reading an interesting book on that very subject; the Soviets cheated a
little on that one. Gagarin ejected at 20,000 feet because the Soviets weren't quite sure if he
could survive the landing. The rules state to earn the speed record the pilot must land IN his
craft. Those commie [censored] lied.

That is the way ignorant Americans see things.
*I* am not ignorant. America would be a lot better off if it's north and south borders were
oceans. Luckily our east and west borders don't present problems.
You're not ignorant? Then it must be an act.

Is it about a few dollars worth of parking tickets? Having the UN in NY city brings in millions
of times the revenue that the city misses out on in parking ticket revenues.
Cite?
There are thousands of Americans employed by the UN, and many thousands more providing services to
all the foreign diplomats that are there on behalf of their governments, hotels, restaurants,
stores, taxis, limo services, airlines, printers, landlords, car sales......... Compared to
what....... a bunch of parking tickets for not paying for parking meters?
You're the one who is ignorant. If the building was turned into luxury condos, they would sell
overnight. Property taxes alone would bring more revenue to NYC.
Why can't it be moved to Montreal? Or Toronto?
