One of the most successful offshoots is Le Bernardin, a copy of the Parisian two-star fish restaurant, located in a comfortable if somewhat stuffy setting in the new Equitable Center. Le Bernardin is run by the brother-and-sister team of Gilbert (the chef) and Maguy (the hostess) Le Coze, owners of the Paris original...

"Let me reassure you right here and now that our response to demands that we cut off or delay research and testing and close shop is: No way. SDI is no bargaining chip." Even that was not enough for some of SDI's most ardent supporters. Just before his speech, eight conservative Congressmen met with Reagan to press him to deploy portions of a space defense as soon as any are ready rather than wait...
