Planning a summer getaway? You can keep your tropical island paradises and your rustic Tuscan villas.
Armed with some extra-strength sunscreen, a tinfoil hat, and Top Secret Tourism: Your Travel Guide to Germ Warfare Laboratories, Clandestine Aircraft Bases and Other Places in the United States You're Not Supposed to Know About, we'll be checking out ominously-named destinations like the Plum Island Animal Disease Center, the Dept. of Energy's Nevada Test Site -- as author Harry Helms puts it, "the most heavily-nuked piece of real estate on the planet" -- and (of course) good old Area 51.
