 Thus following the Holmdel facility into the Halls of Oblivion.

my current location, just E of the NJ Tpke, now splits the distance between them.

I was in HO in the late '80s, at MH in the mid '90s, there to divide the corporate directory.  

Anecdote on the latter:  The "company to be named" - i.e. Lucent had to shell out Hundreds of 1000s to Yet Another Garage Tronics in Silicon Valley for rights to the name -- the internet was young enough that the Name Search committee didn't have  "Dot Com" in it's dictionary as yet.
