That is a depressingly common con job, carried forward into the new
decade:  All my life, I've seen resident whack jobs at Hoover
Institution promoted as being academics from 'Stanford'.  The Hoover
Institution is _not Stanford_; it's just located on the Stanford campus.

The Institution has had quite a number of respect-worthy people there,
including among many others Kerensky and Gorbachov -- but also a rather
larger number of whack-a-doodles, such as Dr. Atlas.

FWIW, I'm at least distantly fond of 'Stanford CA' as census-designated
place, having been born there 'n' all.  ;->
