I didn't know he was in a fraternity? Good for him. Just some info I found when researching his name on the net. I think he added the middle name Lee because when searching his name on the net, two other Ernest Thomas' appeared; so he may have wanted to separate himself from those two other famous Ernest Thomas'...

Pretty interesting indeed about Ernest, plus all of the other factoids we've read about him in the same site source!
Anyhow, it would be nice to have a new documentary show about former child/young stars (like there was in 2003, that was hosted by Malcolm Jamal Warner), so we could see our remaining WH crew there...
