The audience was the expected grey but included evidence that the conservative perspective Dr. Belanger expresses finds fertile ground in some younger advocates, if mostly women. All who listened, at the program's conclusion expressed their complete approval. The doctor, in the sunset of his career, is no longer just a man. He is the leader of the rare book library community, received with warmth and shown respect. The world changes, the Doctor does not and he believes, in the fullness of time, he will be proven right.
