I like the people at CCrane ok.It is just the Sangean radios I dont care
for.When I worked at a factory in St.Louis that makes wooden jigs for
Aircraft parts in 1961,I owned a battery powered Honeywell radio that
also had a little solar panel on top of the radio.I bought it at a pawn
shop in St.Louis,it was a great little radio.One evening when I got off
work and back to my hotel room (Kingsland Hotel,6668 Delmar Blvd,I doubt
if that old hotel is there anymore,it was so run down even back then,I
paid $25.00 each week for my rent at that old hotel,an old guy by the
last name of Walker ran that hotel) somebody had broken into my room and
stole my radio and a few other things of mine.

You must not have been to St. Louis lately. Delmar is really
upscale/yuppiefied...

The hotel was right there near University City and near Big Bend
Blvd,Big Bend Blvd runs South.(South is always best)There used to be a
gas station at the corner of Delmar and Big Bend.I joined the U.S.Army
on October 28,1962 and when I finished boot camp at Fort
Gordon,Georgia,I was in ARADCOM,U.S.Army Air Defense Command at Scott
Airforce Base,Illinois and at SL-60 (Nike Hercules Ajax Missile Base)
near Pacific,Missouri from January 1963 through October 1963.Back in
those days/years,that part of Delmar Blvd was in a run down
neighborhood.I used to have a girlfriend who lived in
Kirkwood,Missouri.I haven't been in the St.Louis area since October 1963
so I have no idea of what that neighborhood looks like nowdays.I do know
since then,many old buildings in St.Lous have been torn down and
replaced with new buildings.

....nice restaurants, coffee shops, nice restaurants, fancy antique
stores, several sidewalk cafes , art galleries, and oh, did I mention
nice restaurants? Also Chuck Berry has an eatery with a small auditorium
where he performs once a month or so. (IIRC, he lives in Ladue).

Not quite the San Antonio River Walk, but still pretty nice...

I like St.Louis,I have always liked St.Louis.San Antonio is nice too.I
have been there a few times before.The San Antonio River runs right by a
big shopping mall (I dont remember the name of that mall) in downtown
San Antonio.A few years ago I saw a website about the old buildings in
St.Louis that have been torn down and replaced with new buildings.I
think I sent that website to one of my other webtv addresses,I will look
for it later on and I saw another website too.
www.stlouisrickshaw.com I used to listen to Jim White's radio talk
show out of KMOX St.Louis.And when I was at Scott Airforce
Base,Illinois,I would listen to KWK and KXOK.Are you a KWK Good
Guy!,they used to say and KXOK would say,KXOKKKKKKK in
St.Louissssssss,,,,,

I don't buy his excuse for one minute...this was much more than just
getting a group of names to test potential products on.

From the story: At some point, Williams gave Justice instructions on
how to break into Crane's database systems and retrieve the company's
list of customers. On Tuesday, Nov. 18, Williams and Justice exchanged
a flurry of e-mails. Most of them were during business hours, when
Justice would have been sitting at his computer in C. Crane's offices.
Justice had successfully obtained the list. .... But both knew that was
just the beginning of their problems. In April, C. Crane had filed a
14-count civil suit against them, Wang, Sangean and Justice's father,
Jack Justice, who had gone into partnership with his son to develop
RadioLabs. The suit charged that these parties conspired to
misappropriate C. Crane's trade secrets, to engage in unfair business
competition and to interfere with the relationship between C. Crane and
its subcontractors.

Justice, Willams and Sangean are damn lucky imho.

- We don't know what the settlement was.. Sangean obviously settled
rather than losing

But Justice & Willaims could have done time..

& Crane wouldn't have settled unless he settled for something
worthwhile;;

No indication of that from the article.


I gather from the article that Justice is back in business about a
block from his former employer.

Sure there was... Both Justice and Williams were originally charged with grand
theft... that's a FELONY... obviously pled down to a misdemeanour.

Must not have been much of a felony case because the prosecution faded
pretty quickly.
