Hey, Bill!

Back in 1992, things were not as strict as they are now....

We were allowed to see Lew's skull, handle it to our hearts' content, photograph it - and even clown around with it.... no white gloves involved - at all! Just our bare hands.

I got to "see" him two separate times before he was shipped home to "mama"! HA!

One thing I was amazed at was how small the skull actually was! It seemed his head was smaller than mine - and he was a big boy! I asked the anthropologist why it seemed small and he stated that it was because the muscle, tissue, fat, nerves, and other things makes the head appear larger. If that's the case, than mine must be miniscule!
