Shake head. Take picture.
The Guardian has obtained correspondence through a public records request that indicate Apple is seeking a facility in the San Francisco area to test a self-driving car.
"In May, engineers from Apple's secretive Special Project group met with officials from GoMentum Station, a 2,100-acre former naval base near San Francisco that is being turned into a high-security testing ground for autonomous vehicles."
The station is a facility left over from WWII, and its 20 miles of highways and city streets are surrounded by barbed-wire fences.
Honda and Mercedes-Benz have already used it to test their self-driving car technology.
"This security is bound to appeal to Apple, which has hundreds of engineers quietly working on automotive technologies in an anonymous office building in Sunnyvale, four miles from its main campus in Cupertino."

TIL a shelter dog named Ginny rescued hundreds of injured stray cats. Abused herself and later adopted, she searched alleys, abandoned buildings and construction sites for cats in need. Once found, she would alert her owner who would take them into care. She saved over 900 cats in her lifetime.
