Appreciate the input.
I presented the sauce on associations.
US Gov - Texas (Superconducting Super Collider)
$2Billion project shut-down 1993
Magnablend chem. company later moves in.
Univar takes over Magnablend.
Extent of completed facility underground - unknown to this anon.

But I will add. I was just reminded of some interesting trivia.
Cern had been around since the 1950s.
They already had a Hadron Collider.
In the 1980s they were planning a Large Hadron Collider, ie A competitor to the Texas LHC under construction.
Well guess what;
1993 - US Gov scraps the Texas LHC
1994 - Cern kicks off their plans for a LHC.
The plans for the Large Hadron Collider began to gather momentum in the early 1980s, inspired by the success of its predecessor at Cern, a collider known as the Large Electron Positron (LEP).
But it was not until 1994 that the formal proposal for the LHC was ratified by Cern's member states, and the engineering work began.

Almost like a (Hand-Off).
Just makes one wonder what ALL that $2Billion underground construction in Texas bought.
