The guy that just introduced him had a really annoying voice, almost like he was constantly out of breath. Anyone else pick up on that?

Not to suggest I`m an engineer or anything, but I don`t think you need a factory to make an experimental plane. You can probably have the parts made at specialty metal formers or composite makers that already exist. You`d only make them in a factory if you were going to produce them on a larger scale (but you`d probably use a factory that already exists). I`m sure that is an over-simplification, but I think this guy was really off on the factory talk. Besides, I doubt you can hide a factory...they spew pollutants into the air and water...and generate haz waste. That is all public info. Good video otherwise though, although I agree on the patch comment ^#2

i thought there was a restriction on you tube. only allowing users to upload videos no more than 10 mins in length. does anyone know how this up loader came around this problem.

i know it has nothing to do with the content of the video. i`m just curious

^ Probably because the talk is being held *AT* Google, and the user is "AtGoogleTalks".

Just a hunch, though ;)

the introducing guy sounds like a fag, and he makes that annoying noise becomes he wants penis, he is thirsty.

^^ You didn`t need to type so many words cyborgzero.

"I am a fucking retard" would suffice.

"these people are ghosts" now where have I heard that before? The power that controls our lives, answers to no-one, and rules by fear. The final nail in truth`s coffin, is when you think a secret world benefits you in any way, has consience, or exists for any reason other than to by-pass democratic process and do bad things.

This guy is obviously another normal person turned crazy. Courtesy of Cal Berkley. Not the first not the last.

Pooterlicious: yes, turned crazy by that damned investigative journalism. DAMN YOU!!!! i am now forced to be crazy because i found shell companies setup by the CIA with authorization to land privately owned jets at military bases around the world. its heinous to merely assume they are transporting prisoners for rendition. they must be delivering balloons and pinatas.

@imadazol
I think he is referring more the the assembly location and hangers of these projects rather than where their parts are manufactured. As for polutants... come on it`s not like they are trying to hide a secret coal factory.
