So the entire Manhattan Project leaked because a Cleveland journalist named Jack Raper happened to vacation in New Mexico and stumbled on the greatest secret ever kept.
How can we not know this, Joe?
And it's all about Oppenheimer.
Dr. Oppenheimer is a Harvard graduate, attended Cambridge.
She's a PhD from Gottingham University in Germany, professor of physics, University of California, California Institute of Technology, and is a fellow of too many organizations to enumerate.
And so they were recognizing that Oppenheimer was doing something.
They knew that he was working on a doomsday device.
Uncle Sam has placed the city in charge of two men, the men who command the soldiers.
So what I'm trying to say is Jack Raper never got a Pulitzer Prize, died in obscurity.
Leslie Groves, who was the other guy who was running the town, decided to send him to the Pacific to punish him for being the best journalist in America.
And when he found out he was 60 years old, they decided, okay, we're just going to ignore this story and hope everyone else does because it's too crazy to be real.
Now, what I'm telling you right now is Raper never figured out what Los Alamos was, but he knows that it doesn't make sense.
I'm telling you Renaissance technologies doesn't make sense.
Oh, that Jack Raper with his overactive imagination.
