Funny thing I was curious as to the HMC and security. This afternoon I was up in the computer room and casually walked around to the HMC. I was looking at it and all of a sudden I heard a bell going off and about 30 seconds later two security people come up behind me and basically did an interrogation of me why I was doing back here . I said I was curious as to what version of software the HMC was running and did not want to do anything until I had my bosses approval. One of them read me the riot act about being in an area I am not supposed to be in. He wanted my badge number and he called it in and I got the OK to be there but not to touch. I went back to my desk and informed my boss. He told me to tell him before I go near the HMC to tell him. I think they have motion sensors as I sure did not see any camera(s).
