    I’d say at least I live in one of those 27 states: the Evergreen State of Washington.

    They would have been Jefferson Airplane in 1969. Rather an odd choice for Dick.

    I doubt the Grace Slick story. Where’s the proof?

    That explains the 18 minute gap in the White house tapes

    Don’t most birds shed their primary flight feathers evenly for the same reason?

    I’d like to see the list of 27 states that reach farther north than the southernmost tip of Canada. Google says it’s Middle Island, Pelee, Ontario, Canada (uninhabited) and that puts fewer than 27 states north of there.

    I’d like to know how that worked out for her as far as secret service goes.

    Take care and God bless.

    The idea of Nixon (or anyone else, for that matter) being fed LSD is appalling. That Grace Slick intended to says a lot about her that is not to her credit.

    I think what Gracie did could be considered attempted assault. Maybe she should be brought up on charges, 40+ years after the fact, didn’t think so.

    Did Grace Slick get caught or have second thoughts?

    Eagles are directly protected under two Federal laws: the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. These laws generally prohibit the possession, use, and sale of eagle feathers and parts.

    Reno NV is further west than LA. All of South America is east of Key West.

    Here is what Wikipedia had to say about the Grace Slick incident: Slick and Tricia Nixon, former President Richard Nixon’s daughter, are alumnae of Finch College. Slick was invited to a tea party for the alumnae at the White House in 1969. She invited political activist Abbie Hoffman to be her escort and planned to spike President Richard Nixon’s tea with 600 micrograms of LSD. The plan was thwarted when they were prevented from entering after being recognized by White House security personnel, as Slick had been placed on an FBI blacklist. Slick later speculated that she only received the invitation because it was addressed to “Grace Wing” (the singer’s maiden name), and that she never would have been invited if the Nixons had known that “Grace Wing” was the antiestablishment singer Grace Slick.
