(The article is written for New Hampshire readers, so some of references
may not be clear at first. Concord, Manchester and Nashua refer to
cities in New Hampshire. Sanders Associates is/was a large electronics developer headquartered in Nashua; at the time I worked there main
development areas were counter-intelligence equipment, airline hardware
and software (the 720 may ring a bell), and Avis Rent-a-Car. Sanders
was later purchased by Lockheed and they eventually sold it to BAE.)
