Reflections on the Legacy of Chief Justice Max Baer

Abstract

The sky carried a light-greenish hue. The thunder let out a gentle growl. Suddenly the lightning slammed, and harsh winds pounded the patio furniture into the pool. The host bellowed for all to seek shelter inside. Paralyzed with uncertainty, I instinctively reached for then-Justice Max Baer's arm to direct him to safety. He calmly responded in his monotone voice: "It's only a tornado, Kevin. If you're frightened, run into the house with the others. I'm drinking my wine. We don't get enough of them in Pittsburgh, and I would like to see one."
