8.23 Ok, my search fu is kinda weak. I'm looking for info on a prof
who taught at caltech in 86. John Frederick Benton, Ph.D History.
anyone got any ideas? Web searches and Melvyl and amazon searches
turn up zilch, and i find it kinda hard to believe that a history
prof never wrote any papers or books.

\_ thanks. you rule.
\_ He's dead, Jim.
\_ In 1986/87 Benton taught a 9 unit CIT class called "psychohistory"
which was a trace of how psychological events affected history.
\_ use the caltech web site to find other history profs that have
been on the facutly for over 20 years and email them about
him explaingin you situation. i'm sure their history department is
small enough that they all know eachother.
\_ History DEPARTMENT?! This is Caltech you're talking about. All they
have is a Humanities & Social Sciences Dept. There may be like 3-8
profs max doing history at any point in time.
