['Paula Peterson']
South Tahoe Now
It was August 26, 1980, when men in white jumpsuits wheeled an elaborate 1,000-pound bomb disguised as an IBM copy machine into Harvey’s Wagon Wheel Casino in Stateline, Nevada.
That movie is being shown at the Tahoe City Art Haus & Cinema at 5 p.m. on August 26, 46 years after the bomb was first delivered to the second floor of Harvey’s.

…This bomb is so sensitive that the slightest movement either inside or outside will cause it to explode.
