It seems the that warning has gone unheeded. I havent seem too much on TV, or the internet about this anniversary. Last weekend C -Span had a program, sponsored by the Cato Institute,(OMG ) that dealt with the speech and how Eisenhower had fought the complex while President. The main speaker put General Dynamics, owned by the Crown family, at the apex of the the complex at the time of the early 1960's.
The forum search function is not up to scratch yet, so I can't find the thread, but Colonel Henry Crown operated on behalf of the Chicago mob.
Nice guy.
I can't figure out what's wrong with the search function. Boolean searches is switched on so a string of words in quotes ought to work, as should the standard Boolean operators.
I put what ever term I'm after in my Google search box and do a site search rather than a global one. That finds anything.
