I went to high school in Utah and one of our teachers (Rob Bishop) actually became a congressman. Using his new role, he invited our class's honour students to a convention where the youth meet Utah politicians.
That was the first time I crossed paths with Orrin Hatch. He was a man always short on time, and when it came time for the photoshoot, he maintained a scowl until seconds before the shot was taken.
Later, one of my classmates ended up working as his aide. From what I was told, Hatch refuses to use his office computer and still hand-writes all of his manuscripts. What's more, he responds to all of his emails by printing them out and writing a response — a lackey will then type in the response.
I don't understand how he's still on the Senate Judiciary Committee. Although this is purported to be Leahy's brain-child, Hatch almost definitely had a hand in the scarier revisions.
