    One of my work's locations is a leased office in the H.H. Hall building. I never really thought about it much but then I accidentally got off the elevator at the wrong floor and saw that the waterfall statue had an engraving about a Captain Harley Hall of the Blue Angels. Apparently that's who this building is named for. I did some googling and holy cow what a history lesson!

    I kinda feel like I need to see if Mrs. Hall owns the place and if I could chat with her about it all now. It would be neat to build a model of his F-4 to hang up in our office now.

    It just struck me about how much history this one building is tied to, and I wonder if anybody that works here even really realizes it.

    For every 1000 crazy conspiracy theories, there are one or two that just might be factual.

    It sucks that anybody might have been a POW after the war ended.

    It really doesn't sound like you got off on the wrong floor.
