@hazel It has always amused me that the UK Research Councils are based in a building called "Polaris House". Back in the day, Polaris was the name of the UK nuclear deterrent system (before Trident). It seemed to say something about what we were all for. I used to pretend to be working on a project called "Strong Normalisation For Nuclear Missiles". Things have been this way for ever. Spooks and nukes.
