Coldwar bunker found in Brooklyn Bridge
Shit like this cracks me up:
- New York workers have discovered a trove of Cold War-era supplies within the masonry of the Brooklyn Bridge, a cache meant to aid in survival efforts in the event of nuclear attack.
City Department of Transportation employees were conducting maintenance on the structure Wednesday when they found the cache on the top floor of a three-floor space inside the bridge's base, agency spokeswoman Kay Sarlin said.
[...]
The stockpile included empty water drums and boxes of medical supplies, such as tourniquet bandages and an intravenous drip. Also, there were cans of high-calorie crackers with instructions to consume 10,000 calories a day per person. The instructions said the crackers should be destroyed after 10 years, but they were mostly intact.

Well, maybe it was a typo. But just maybe that forward thinking person that created the bunker also knew what the American diet of the 21st century would be. Yeah. He/She still overshot by a Bic Mac or two, but give him/her credit for being pretty close!
