Rickey in Kansas City

From Tom Cooper '72:

I graduated from RPI in 1972. I only heard the name Chrinitoid recently from another RPI graduate who was several years behind me. Do you know where this name originated?

I happened to look up Rickey recently because I found one of his sculptures in Kansas City at the Nelson Atkins Museum sculpture garden and then came across your web site. Here's a couple of photos that I took In Kansas City. http://gallery.mac.com/tgcooper#100190/IMG_0039. This one is not quite as impressive as the Chrinitoid because the moving parts are not as large. But it was great fun coming across this piece. I had some interesting times at RPI with friends looking at the Chrinitoid--ordinarily late at night.
