Interesting reading. Has anyone ever heard of the Central Intelligence Center (CIC)? I did a quick Google search to no avail.
P.S. This is not meant to question Grapes but rather the source of this listing.

Although a nice summation of past, fluff PRs from this company, that has to be one of the worst, fake, pumper, e-mails I have seen.

1. What is "CIC?" In the military and government, the acronym is standard for Combat Information Center. The Military doesn't usually have dual interpretations for the same acronym.

2. Its a little overkill to list "Confidential" all over the e-mail when all the info contained within is a summation of past PRs.

3. If there is an organization called the "Central Intellegence Center," their employees should learn to spell Intelligence.

Call me skeptical. GTE did present their Strat project to the government. The government was so impressed that they awarded the High Altitude Airship project to Lockheed who hadn't even started on an airship project. The U.S. Army has a separate project where they are offering grants to commercial airship projects. I have not read where GTE has received any of these funds.
