    Aye Todd,

    Down behind the movie theater and the ice rink there were sort of catacombs that were used for ASU classrooms back then.

    I wandered most of MetroCenter's dark dank secret places a time or two bidding on their fire alarm monitoring...its big. Of course by now its been remodeled so many times I doubt the guys who built it could find there way around anymore.

    The Honeywell division I worked for was a small one, not one of the big plants on the freeway. The building was razed and now a rental storage building sits on the land.

    OK then...that makes sense.

    I sent this web site to Ron in a PM, but I'll post here as well:

    This is a great web site with a lot of brilliant pictures of the Valley. "My" mountain was North Mountain, as that was the one we could see from the back balcony of our apartment.

    That is one the creepiest shows of nature you'll ever see. I remember getting a broad view of a dust storm coming from the Southeast, form the vantage point of a high freeway overpass. It looked like something from the movie Independence Day.
