MrsO came to the US in 1963 when we were married. She got her Visa at the Montreal consulate that December and her green card at the point of entry which was Niagara Falls. She became a US citizen in 2004. Wonder if she shows up in the data.
No. Actually I left because I was moving from CNY to SW FL. It was a fun job for me. I visited there once later and found they were no longer doing research, but were in simple production mode using the rearing protocols I helped to develop. Probably would have been bored with that.
Funny. When I was an entomology lab technician at Cornell I had to cut down and cut up a couple small diameter sugar maple tress to use in rearing Asian Longhorn beetles for research. In the summer I went out with my chain saw wearing shorts, T shirt, and my LL Bean camp-mocs. I told the grad students who had to accompany me by safety policy that they did not see this. When I left the job, I went to a supply store and bought all the safety gear for the person who was to follow me.
Back in the day most every decent sized community had a Coca Cola bottling plants. It featured a large front window where passersby could see it in operation. Each place had the city name on the bottom of the bottles. We used to play a game to see whose bottle came from the farthest place. Good times.

I remember when the Purple Rain album arrived at the radio station where I was DJing. The station manager and I checked it out. Loved the clear purple vinyl it was pressed on. Found backwards messages and just loved the Hendrix ending on Let's Go Crazy. RIP.
Peter Seller's performances in Dr. Stangelove was a tour de force. He was supposed to also play the role of the B-52 pilot Major Kong, but for some reason he could not and it went to Slim Pickens who did and outstanding job.
RIP.
