I have actually had pizza at the Pentagon. True, it was almost 30 years ago, and it tasted like federal-cafeteria pizza, but it was edible and I'm still alive.

Because with their budget they can afford to induce artificial demand and thus exert control over the signal, fooling adversaries in the process.

I think the signal itself is pretty much just noise. If you're scheming against Pentagon you'd assume they're always working hard anyway.

Lame that you can't obviously choose to show the last two weeks of the total.

The only strategic nuclear submarine base of russia. Which already lost most of their ts strategic bomber fleet.

Don't historians already contend with a bunch of lies and misunderstandings people wrote down in the past? Eg, it's my understanding that the Salem Witch Trials were driven by property disputes and petty grievances, but presumably that's a product of historians reading critically and between the lines, and no one wrote down "it would be really convenient if Goody So-and-So died, because I want a bigger farm?"

My favorite nickname for him is what people in the military apparently call him: Kegsbreath.

The idea is, that they're spending overtime at the Pentagon and need fast food (pizza) delivered to keep working.

Stupid answer: methane levels would suddenly spike inside the pentagon early the next morning, perhaps giving the GasInt division just enough warning.
