Wow, this one has hit real hard. I went to a few sites in the eighties just after Bob had blown town. Legendary. Finally met him at Battelle in the early nineties. Liked him from day one...OK,OK...day two.
Spent more than one afternoon with Bob up at the Keg Room after work knocking back ice cold frosties. Bob always got a laugh from the regulars when he would walk in and in his best Boston drawl tell the barkeep, "Gimme a glass of milk...and leave the carton". As for that ol' log book, I do remember having to help[ ol' Bob get it up to speed after he let it slide a few weeks. Hilarious.
Bob, you've left us too soon. Rest in peace my friend.
