...about spy satellites. He worked in a room called the Black Vault, off limits to all but half a dozen TRW employees. The group found plant security so lax that they spent their days getting drunk on booze smuggled in via a CIA pouch, mixing daiquiris in a document shredder and selling Amway household products over the secure telephone line. Chris was sometimes sober enough to be appalled by the messages he was handling: the CIA was spying by satellite on friendly nations like France and Israel and trying to topple the new leftist government of Australia...
...reason Roy is shaky is that a bunch of baddies have killed his wife while aiming at him. Discharged from a rest home, he gets the strong impression that his bosses no longer have any use for him, and indeed we see them running his dossier through the paper shredder and deciding to do something very similar to his person. To compound his difficulties, a rather schizzy young woman (Janet Margolin) has mysteriously taken up residence in his apartment (her story of a mixed-up sublease does not wash awfully well).

"I've seen it happen too many times. The best goddamned thing in your movie shows up in a goddamned TV show six months before the movie is out. I don't want anything stolen." He yells...
...figured anything worth 10 a pound in 1941 sooner or later would be worth 100 a pound." Heidelberger was wrong. Much to his own-and his neighbors'-surprise, the tires have turned out to be worth much more. An Oklahoma salvage entrepreneur plans to erect a huge shredder at Heidelberger's place; he aims to process the tires to extract oil, added as a rubber-softening agent during manufacture, and steel belting, and to make an oatmeal-like material that can be mixed with hard coal to provide smooth-burning fuel for generating electricity. The salvager...
