Well, that *might* be true.

Remember a couple of decades ago, how the giant H. Hughes ship _The
Glomar Explorer_ was going out to sea in search of manganese nodules,
making Hughes' mining exploration incredible amounts of money?

And all the science magazines (and PBS and commercial TV) had specials
about manganese nodules and other competing mining companies actually
begain their own manganese nodule mining programs?

Today we "know" it was all a sham and that really the ship was built
for the express purpose of recovering a sunk Russian nuclear sub.
They got most of the sub but it broke apart while hauling it up
and _supposedly_ little was actually recovered.

I put "know" in quotes because I don't even believe that explanation.
Some will say that Glomar Explorer recovered the whole Russian sub
intact and that the broken-apart-and-lost story was designed to
be misleading.

Almost any PR-type release about military technology in the 70's/80's
has, I figure, at least a couple levels of misdirection in it.

The "natural gas into RF pulses and then converted back to electrical
power" explanation shares at least a couple of elements with the 
manganese nodules thing. So was it over-the-horizon RADAR, or is
it propogation research, or is it a way of getting electricity from
natural gas, or is it yet something else and all the other three
are in fact cover stories? I can only guess, but I say the last!
