Have you ever heard of Robert M. Higdon?  He's new to me.
gpt
He is pretty new to me as well.  I heard he was big in the development of Reagan's Presidential Library.
human
I've always been curious what a presidential library is.  Never been to one, have this picture in my head of a regular library, must be different.
gpt
I wonder the same thing, I wonder if it is just a library that he helped to fund and sponsor, there is a museum too.  I wonder what that has in it.
human
Seems he did similar thing for the British PM, Thatcher.
gpt
Maybe he just really loved all that libraries have to offer and saw a lot of value in them. 
human
My daughter loves libraries, she loves to read.  I'm glad she does, she reads a book a day.  It saves us a lot of money.
gpt
*relaxed posture* The UK PM back in 1895 founded a library and wheelbarrowed his collection of 32,000 books almost a mile to the library.  
human
*raises eyebrows* I hope it wasn't raining!  I might want to publish a book in Norway, a guaranteed 1000 sold to the government.
gpt
Then they get put in libraries, so they are supporting authors and reading.  I think that is fantastic!
human
Agreed, reading is wholesome and nutritious for the brain.  Not sure Reagan's idea that ice cream was the same for the body is right.
gpt
He had some great ideas, that wasn't one of them.  I love ice cream and all, but it isn't exactly nutritious.  
human
Were I to live in Japan and live to a 100, I could have my  ice cream in a silver cup from the PM.
gpt
That is pretty cool, they probably had to start finding a cheaper way to make cups.  It seems that there would be a lot of people making it to 100 in Japan, versus the US.
human
*takes a step forward* I like the idea of libraries expanding to other things, like the Sacramento library where you can get things that useful like sewing machines.
gpt
I think that is a great idea, that way people can checkout things that they might need.  It is a great way of community sharing.
human
I wonder if you can check out things from presidential libraries?  I suspect not, probably more like a museum.
gpt
Probably, especially it there is unique things that can't be replaced.  One thing that is hopeful for the country is there are more libraries than mcdonalds in the US.  Yay for reading!
human
*eyes brighten* Definitely not wholesome and nutritious.  I'm sure McDonald's are working on that one.
gpt
There is a man who was wrongly convicted in jail and spent his time in the prison library reading law books and then became a lawyer.
human
Probably a cheaper way than going to college and getting all those student loans.  Still, the environment would not be nice.
gpt
He then used his skill to help others that were in his situation, falsely convicted people.  Which is pretty neat.
