Yeah, I kind of wonder why my company got revenue for providing Ada compilers
and certification packages for fire control, navigation and braking systems
from several 777 subcontracters if this is true.  Maybe they just had a lot

in American business.  Course, I could've been hallucinating the commissions
I got.
