Do we have any Tom Clancy fans out there? My cousin is reading his latest and sent me this little clip. (Every other year? I don't know... maybe he's predicting something...) Other RPI alumni, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Clancy was the commencement speaker in '92. Matt RPI'94 ______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ Been reading the latest Tom Clancy novel. Here's a passage you might find interesting. Jack Ryan is now President and he's hosting the Stanley Cup champion Anahiem Mighty Ducks... "My CIA Director is a big hockey fan," Jack said. "Really" Bob Albertsen asked. He was a very physical defenseman, the terror of his conference for his board checking, but as docile as a kitten in this setting. "Yeah, he has a kid who's pretty good, played in the kids' league in Russia" "Then maybe hs learned something. Where's he go to school?" "I'm not sure what colleges they're thinking about. I think they said Eddie wants to study engineering." "Tell him to send the kid to Rensselaer. It's a good tech school up by Albany." "Why there?" "Those damned nerds win the college championship every other year. I went to Minnesota, and they cleaned our clock twice in a row. Send me his name and I'll see he gets some stuff."
