Think he did not believe I would get through there but with the help of three of the Student Body Presidents there, I did. The IAC people did seemed surprised to see me in Reno, Nevada at the Law Library convention as the cataloger of all the computer files on there. And they seemed to be around in subsequent conventions of law librarians in Minneapolis (1990), New Orleans (1991) and San Francisco (1992). I attended all of these.

Robert Lee was one of my better bosses. I do not believe his parents stuck him with a middle name that started with E and if memory serves me right he was from Connecticut.
What a great history! Thank you!

One of my lifelong best friends, a pharmacist in New Mexico, had the last name of Lee and he resembled Robert E. Lee a good bit. However his ancestry was Guatemalan so I doubt there was any relationship. lol
