During a business trip to Chicago in 1989 I took the boat tour of the river
and lake. The guide described every building and site of any interest at
all, but the Morton Thiokol (the contractor primarily responsible for the
Challenger disaster) corporate office, clearly visible from the boat, was
prominent by omission.
Perhaps it was in poor taste but before I could stop myself I asked the
guide rather loudly "What does Morton Thiokol do?"
At least I didn't finish by saying "...besides blow up astronauts..."
