Liddy did not actually enter the Watergate Complex; rather, he admitted to supervising the second break-in from a room in the adjacent Watergate Hotel.
For this, which he coordinated with E. Howard Hunt, Liddy was convicted of conspiracy, burglary and illegal wiretapping.[10] Liddy was sentenced to a 20-year prison term and was ordered to pay $40,000 in fines. He began serving the sentence on January 30, 1973. On April 12, 1977, President Jimmy Carter commuted Liddy's sentence to eight years, "in the interest of equity and fairness based on a comparison of Mr. Liddy's sentence with those of all others convicted in Watergate related prosecutions", leaving the fine in effect.[11] Carter's commutation made Liddy eligible for parole as of July 9, 1977. Liddy was released on September 7, 1977, after serving a total of four and a half years of actual incarceration.

As a Plant Superintendant, I worked directly for Archibald Cox, Jr. He was the President of the First Bank of Boston at one time. My mother was his personal assistane as well. His father, Archibald Cox Sr. prosecuted Richard Nixon forthe Watergate break-ins. Archie, Sr. was a Harvard Law Professor until he retired.

Speaking of Carlisle...

We are in the midst of finalizing details and as the new Events Director I'd like to solicit some feedback on past Events at Carlisle.

Would you like to see anything new?
What was good?
What needed improvement?
Any suggestions?

The event is not very far off so I cannot guarantee much in the way of change however I'd like to give it a try or at least give have an idea...

Cheers,

He said on his radio program many times that he, as a felon, could own no firearms.

He said all his firearms were in his wife's name - so as a felon, he ain't 'gun-totin', unless he's been pardoned...

Cheers,

a few ideas

1. new

like to see a presentation (pc with the video) of Graham's BG LPE Twin Turbo, Marc Haibeck, anything else you have from last or previous BGs

a detailed "tech seminar" on the Raptor Megasquirt and Twin Turbo setup, install options, approx pricing, engine built tips ect....

talk to the FBI guys and see if they can discuss the AES liners, Pete's cams and porting, and anything they are willing to discuss on driving techniques.

in short, we should do more "tech presentations' at the tent. I'm willing to host and review the LSV LPE history and discuss the "technology" used in this "old school" build

2. what's good

the downtown harrisburg dinner was GREAT forget the restaurant but it's a blast. more upscale than pizza and would be nice on Sat night

burgers and the drinks at the tent are fantastic, and as always the merchandise is top notch

really like the raffles for the vendor stuff too

3. what needed improvement (more of a suggestion)

would be cool to "map out" and share tips for where the LT5/ZR-1 vendors, parts, and cars for sale are for those interested.

be prepared to discuss the "way forward" and recent changes at the ZR-1 net registry. lots of folks are interested and many ask me but I honestly don't know and it's not my place to say

keep up the good work, and welcome to the new board members
