| Though I'd have a few less grey hairs if I had waited longer to go. ( 'Went a few weeks after they first turned off the lights. ) |
Did you have issues with security and/or the cops? I'd like to hear about your trip there.
Subduction leads to orogeny. Duh. |

| | | | Well, it seemed there for a few months that one could simply walk into Gates, and that just sounded so odd to me.
I had to avoid what I think were two security trucks. 'Cause as soon as one would pass around a corner, no less than a minute later another Ford Ranger would appear! I brought only two small LED lights with red filters that I made out of that light-gel stuff. I won't say exactly how I got in, but it involved climbing two 'things' to another 'thing' that was very open. Like I've said before when people have asked, it was probably the single most frightening experience I've ever had. I hid more than I explored, about every ten minutes I swore I was hearing someone walking or talking on a radio even though I never saw any people inside the complex.
I didn't get any special treats, as even when I went the place was pretty empty. Look at Jerusalem's photos and you'll have an idea, and the photos that Sharon took of those empty production floors - I clearly remember those, they were barren like that two years ago too. I remember having to find other ways into areas as some doors had little devices installed that I'm fairly certain were motion detectors, I remembered to check for them from Jerusalem's experience.
I didn't get to see a whole lot, was only there an hour and a half, then got spooked and booked it when I heard sirens and what sounded like chains or metal being moved... though I bet an LEO call to Gates would have been a silent run.
I left that night looking like a chimney sweep!
The big bottle I left on the water tower was up there for a looong time.

Oh yeah! I forgot. I guess I'll find something else to do this weekend.

Also, my previous post was in response to the question above it. That was a synopsis of my trip back in ot-five. Nothing recent from me at all, I've only been there that one time.

| | | | Actually, my boyfriend is buddies with the Gates photographer who just shot the location before they started demolition. He says they are not demoing the whole building. They may actually reuse it, which would be rad.

I think it is better to reuse than demo the whole fucking thing. It's wasteful to do that.

I wasn't informed until recently. Plus, I am not the type of girl to gain things from men I am dating. So I will likely never ask David to meet this friend of his.

I think so too, but i could be wrong. My bank is across the street from it and I was there today and spoke to a guy who is working on the demo. He wouldn't really answer many questions but seemed stressed about it and kept getting angry about waiting in line. It would be pretty sweet if they kept part.
