Bertelsen, starting at seven, was on an excellent high school crew at Washington and Lee. Tom Shefiled at bow, Hal Smith at two, Bob Tyler at five, and Dave Sutherland at six round out his crew...

There is a lot of the martyr-toned, bogus moralizing now fashionable among scientists and their hero-worshipers.
