It lies about two hours west of Washington DC in the small town of Culpeper, Virginia.
Built into the side of a mountain that used to house $3 billion in cash to jump start the economy in the event of a nuclear holocaust. It's now used to store the film and audio archives of the Library of Congress
The official title is the Center for Audio and Visual Conservation.
Yours truly got a tour of the facility, not open to the public, through the connections of my wife Winnie Margate. She was doing some work there and I got an in to see the archives first hand. There are many posts to come where I will give you an exclusive look at the insides of the joint.
