my cousins lived at the Underwater Sound Lab in Conneticut. Submarines 
passed by like trains did in my old neighborhood.

i remember seeing the "Triton" - the largest sub of its time - at a dock, 
scheduled for tear-down. my dad was going to take a picture of the boat 
when the single person standing on deck waved a "no". the sub was un-manned 
except for this sailor (presumably whose job was to stop dads from taking 
pictures).

this was a sub that was virtually retired. any fool on a boat with a 
telephoto lens could have had a field day  taking pictures just out in the 
river.

soooooo, i guess that kind of thinking is pretty pervasive.
