Medals and Honors
Robert really wasn't the type to place much value on medals, plaques, certificates, prizes, and trophies. In fact, he didn't care about them. To get rid of the sometimes massive and heavy trophies without offending the organizers, Robert developed very inventive strategies. Two anecdotes illustrate his attitude toward these "awards."
