still has to be approved, so is not official yet). The classification was done
by Leo Kriegsman and me at Naturalis (the Dutch National Muse

Dear Ron and Everyone on the List
Some quite spectacular images were shown on the news here. As usual the

It is well known that arms caches were hidden in Nicaragua during the fight
between Sandinista's and Contra's in the 80-ies. In 1993, one of these exploded
