	Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The death of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco during the first season of Saturday Night Live in 1975 served as the source of one of the first catch phrases from SNL to enter the general lexicon.
		The imminent death of Franco was a headline story on the NBC news for a number of weeks prior to his death on November 20.
		After Franco's death, Chevy Chase, reader of the news on Saturday Night Live's comedic news segment Weekend Update, announced the dictator's death and read a insane quotation from Richard Nixon stating "General Franco was a loyal friend and ally of the United States.

	Francisco Franco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Franco, already general of a Division and assessor to the war minister, was put in command of the operations directed to suppress the insurgency.
		Franco had to face the problem of how to move his troops to the Iberian Peninsula, because most units of the Navy had remained in control of the republic and were blocking the Strait of Gibraltar.

	Francisco Franco
		Franco graduated from the military academy in Toledo.
		Interestingly, though the head of a republican government, Franco never assumed the title of "President." He was referred to only as the "Generalissimo" or the "Head of State." This move, along with his panache for "royal" uniforms, allowed him to court Spain's large pro-monarchy demographic.
		This was a surprise for the Carlist[?] pretender to the throne.

		This was effectively refuted by a study of *4 promissory estoppel cases by Robert Hillman in which he found that the absence of reliance was dispositive in 25% of the cases in which promissory estoppel claims were denied.
		But though it should have come as no surprise that the existence of a promise was still a requirement of promissory estoppel, this finding still undercut the old 1960s and 1970s "reliance theory" of promissory estoppel in which reliance on any verbal conduct was to be treated like a form of a verbal tort.
		And finally, in section 71D, I proposed that a promise meeting the requirements of sections 71A-C might still be unenforceable if the promisor could show that a reasonable promisee would not have understood the promisor to have intended the promise to be legally binding.
