Yes, but that's not how I knew the name. I'm an early boomer (and my

fairly frequently, along with a large number of other old movies.

So am I. Both of my parents worked for Lockheed until Dad was drafted.
(Limited service because he was blind in his left eye.) In fact, he
told me once that he worked on the prototype for one of the models of
the P38. Not that any of this is Fedora related, but it might explain a
bit about where I'm coming from and why my opinions about software don't
match some of the younger members of the list.
