I looked into it a little more and Douglas was involved in an earlier, competing project that resulted in helpful insights, but it wasn’t the same. North American had an office half an hour away – I don’t know what bar culture was like back then, but it sounds a little far for them to have been regulars.

So now I wonder if the rename was not only due to the tragic accident, but also due to Galsini finding out that the X-15 wasn’t Douglas’s and changing to a more appropriate name. Douglas did design part of the Saturn V.

Telesto looks like a tasty item, and I look forward to trying it out Real Soon Now—after I make a batch of your falernum.

And your link reminds me: I forgot to include the pistachio orgeat recipe, I’ll have to correct that today. (It’s very similar to the one you provide at your link.)

Thanks for the note, and recipes!

I’d say give them both a try. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Incidentally, I’ve been living in Saturn-variant-land somewhat recently, and I might have just the ticket if you’re looking to expand the use of your pistachio orgeat, sir – provided you don’t mind making a batch (very small, about 1/2 a cup) of specialty Meyer lemon falernum. The cocktail is the Telesto – in retrospect it might be a little booze-heavy at 2 oz – but the earthy richness of the pistachio orgeat fits like a glove with the lightness of the Meyer lemon. http://feu-de-vie.blogspot.com/2015/07/meyer-lemon-falernum-telesto.html

Good to hear from you, Bruce. I’m thinking back to good times in the old neighborhood.

Also the New Yorker cartoon of the two crones carrying fishing poles approaching the stream and saying….
