That does sound pretty interesting...

I read it a few years back. Interesting read.

I bid on 2 tons of cat food, to feed he armadillos at Carville, back in the late 70's.Armadillos could contract lepracy and they were used for research.

I arrived at the research area,and knocked on the door. Two workers in what looked like space suits opened the door. They told me to come in and stack the food in some room.
I informed them that I was not going inside stacked the cat food by the door and never bid on Carville cat food again.And that's the truth.
