history

It was 1972, and the Meson Lab was just working on its first beam transport. As I sat and fiddled with the MAC-16 control computer to see what it would do, I looked up to see a gentleman walking towards me wearing a beret and wearing a top coat.

In the 1990s, Tim Meyer was a summer research student at Fermilab. He recalls how he called the lab with a critical, career-cementing question before his first day of work.
