At least us geeks have the ability to spell and use punctuation. Perhaps it's because we have lives that included an education?

I fly my geek flag high because I'm proud!

i was wondering if anyone who chats on this site happened to work at Pilgrim in the early 1950s, specifically 1950 to 1953. i just found out that my mother was an inpatient here for those three years. I would love to chat with anyone who might have known her. Her last name was Gleason, she would have been about 18 yrs old or so when admitted. I would appreciate any info you might have. Thanks,

I was wondering if anyone knows what the building in the foreground is/was used for. its connected to the building behind the photographer but not the inpatient facility, so I'm wondering if it was just a service center for the building we can't see? anyway just curious!
