One memory I have related to the American Chemical Society is back in August 1973 when my dad took me with him to the Chicago convention when I was still in high school. I went in the exhibit hall, and he also took me on a field trip to Argonne National Laboratory. We spent part of the day on a sailboat on Lake Michigan with a friend.”—Jeffrey Dyer, son
