Back in '94 when Martin Marietta (now LMC) started consolidating plants
with the newly acquired GE Aerospace plants, they decided that one
particlar operation in Vermont would be moved to Orlando. Of course they
sent out offers to all the engineers to move to the Orlando plant. Only
a couple of engineers agreed, and they were both very junior. The rest
of the engineers threatened to start up a competeing company in the
newly-abandoned plant (with much cheaper rent).
The operation ended up staying in Vermont.
(not that I'm suggesting anything...)
