On the recordNovember 10, 2003
I actually know how Searchlight got its name, I say to my friend through the distinguished Presiding Officer. Searchlight got its name because someone said, ``I found gold,'' and someone said he would ``need a searchlight to find it.'' I feel fairly certain that was it. I think, as I said in my book, if I took the naming of Searchlight to a jury I would win, but not every time. We know the Lloyd Searchlight thing is history that, as I said, only deserved one paragraph. I gave it two. But it is not much of a theory. But the one dealing with the matches is pretty good. I think that is something that a jury once in a while--if we did it 10 times, maybe 2 out of the 10 would find that.
