Santa Teresa, pray for us. IBM development Santa Teresa lab was located in San Jose (now renamed "Silicon Valley Lab"). Idea was Jim Blanchard's. The nearest post office is the wide-spot-on-what-used-to-be-US-101 named Coyote, so this was going to be the Coyote Lab. Just about the time the name was to be cast in concrete, an organization of former prostitutes in San Francisco called COYOTE ("Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics") got a brief run of publicity, so the lab was rename for the Santa Teresa Hills, just to the west (where a lot of cinnabar was mined during WW2 for detonators).
