+ <take and eat of this all of you, for this is my body> + My father worked for the Air Force Ballistic Missiles Division in Los Angeles in the early '60s and brought this (supposedly true) story home one evening: RocketDyne and Jet Propulsion Laboratories had adjacent test facilities, and one day JPL was testing a rocket engine that came loose from its mountings and careened over into the Rocketdyne facility. Fortunately, noone was hurt, and there was very little damage. The next morning, the President of RocketDyne had a terse telegram on his desk from the President of JPL: "If there are any further such acts of aggression we shall be forced to retaliate."
