What remains of "Lucas" is no more Lucas than AT&T is AT&T or Evinrude
is Evinrude. The three corporations some might remember favorably or not
died or were sold off in pieces, and the new corporations that use those
names simply bought the names.


A few years ago, there were some late model F series U.S. fighter jets
equipped for the Navy that were grounded due to faulty guidance
systems built by Lucas Aeronautics.


The Prince of Darkness struck again!
