It was interesting to me, after looking closer at your link, that J-M apparently was included about 1930 and remained a component about 50 years. During the early and mid 70's they were my biggest client.

Their world headquarters moved from NY to Denver about 1971. They thrived here until ego got the best of them and they built a new hq building in the foothills southwest of the city. That building looked like an aircraft carrier sitting in the rocks. A beautiful location, but it simply cost them too much and they went into a decline followed immediately by the asbestos suits.

Now the building is part of the enormous Lockheed-Martin complex and is shrouded in secrecy. Nobody gets near it without security clearance.
