Ort - Online Athens
This is a good article on Ort. I think as much as anything he symbolized the quirky little college town Athens was and what has been IMO fading away. It's cool that he is being eulogized. I really enjoyed that era of Athens. I go back now and there are some remnants, but it's not the same. I also saw where Ort had a photographic memory and remembered the entire Athens phone book at one point; quite the definition of idiot savant.
