Hello! Nope! The school is named after the only member of the Constitutional Congress that wrote our documents from Queens. That's who Francis Lewis was. The chad was a reference to what punched cards produce, and the bucket of points is indeed the bad joke.
I did look him up, seems to be loyal British until the Stamp Act. Then pretty much uses all of his resources to get guns, ammo and supplies to the Continental Army. House burned, wife imprisoned to the point of almost death (sounds like she might have been imprisoned on the prison barrage the British kept nearby). She later dies from her illnesses. One daughter runs off with a British Navy Officer, 2 sons remain in the US. He dies broke and is buried in Dutchess County (60 miles north of the city). Chad I understand, I think the bucket of points is related to the chad, not sure of the burial site significance. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@linuxha.com http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies
