*Silly **Indeed! Spike is proposing that a 249 mile long tunnel (7 times
longer than the longest known tunnel in the world) between the Capitol
Building in Washington and the Greenbrier hotel in West Virginia was made
without anybody ever noticing such a massive construction; and then in 1992
when the Greenbrier bunker was decommissioned that magnificent tunnel was
apparently completely filled in, again with nobody ever noticing, because
today there's not the slightest hint at either the Capital Building or
the Greenbrier hotel that the tunnel ever existed. I can't think of
anything sillier, except that Trump won the 2020 election. *
