The other day I was fishing in the gut and couldnt help but notice that Plumb Island is a very very strange place. So I went home and went to Yellowpages.com to get a "birdseye" view of the island and there are some HUGE buildings on there. Can anyone off any insight as to what goes on there and what this fort knox looking building is????

For a really good read about the island, check out Lab 257, by Michael Carrol. Very very interesting and also a little disturbing.

Great!! Thanks for all the info. I think I will pick up a copy of the book after reading all the great reviews. Thanks again for all your help.

Just really head scratching stories in the book. Like various germs etc being shipped to Plum Island and being shipped (FedEx and UPS!) in really sturdy packages that can withstand a 40 mph impact. Sounds great right? When was the last time YOU did 40 mph on the LI Expressway?
