The Other Ground Zero



With all the recent talk of NYC's Ground Zero, we often lose site of the origin of the term.  Brian Boyer brings us back to earth, albeit a glass-like earth made of trinitite, named after the site where the first nuclear (that's Nucular in G. W. Bush-speak) blast occured (Trinity).

It's good to have brains such as these involved with the insurance of safety in the use of nuclear sources.  Homer Simpson has manned the board at Springfield's Nuclear Plant for more than 20 years while still acting as part-time mascot for the Isotopes baseball team.  And Brian has been at work in the field for just slightly less time than he took to graduate!

The great wrist-band photo adds to Brian's extensive collection.
