Here is a quick post to memorialize this moment.
High School, 40 years ago +/-: My English teacher, Mr. Eugene Conrotto, stated that he was a "walking dictionary" when asked how to spell a word. First time I heard the phrase "walking dictionary".
Conrottoism
Today: Reading a NY Times article about the freshly rejuvenated Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the Chief Archivist is referred to as a "walking hard-drive" of Walholian facts. First time I heard the phrase "walking hard-drive".
