Uh, the Manhattan Engineering District was not "one or two scientists working under top secret conditions in a hidden lab", it was at the time the largest engineering development program in history, involving thousands of scientists and engineers in three major facilities, each the size of a small city, and more than 20 smaller sites. Further, most people in the physics community who were _not_ part of it nonetheless had a pretty good idea what was going on--as one of my professors put it "when Bethe and Bohr and Hahn and Fermi and the rest disappeared, we all knew what it meant--'atom bomb'". -- -- --John to email, dial "usenet" and validate (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |
