Those Involved With Practical Reactors, Humbled By

We Bury The Men Who Do The Nation's Creative Work Under Layers Of Administrators And Mountains Of Memoranda. We Shrivel Creativity By Endless Frustrations.

I Suggest That This Is A Good Time To Think Soberly About Our Responsibilities To Our Descendents - Those Who Will Ring Out The Fossil Fuel Age. Our Greatest Responsibility, As Parents And As Citizens, Is To Give America's Youngsters The Best Possible Education. We Need The Best Teachers And Enough Of Them To Prepare Our Young People For A Future Immeasurably More Complex Than The Present, And Calling For Ever Larger Numbers Of Competent And Highly Trained Men And Women.

Responsibility Is A Unique Concept... You May Share It With Others, But Your Portion Is Not Diminished. You May Delegate It, But It Is Still With You... If Responsibility Is Rightfully Yours, No Evasion, Or Ignorance Or Passing The Blame Can Shift The Burden To Someone Else. Unless You Can Point Your Finger At The Man Who Is Responsible When Something Goes Wrong, Then You Have Never Had Anyone Really Responsible.

I Do Not Have Regrets. I Believe I Helped Preserve The Peace For This Country. Why Should I Regret That? What I Accomplished Was Approved By Congress -- Which Represents Our People. All Of You Live In Safety From Domestic Enemies Because Of Security From The Police. Likewise, You Live In Safety From Foreign Enemies Because Our Military Keeps Them From Attacking Us.

Knowing More About The Public Effects His Work Will Have, The Engineer Ought To Consider Himself An "officer Of The Court" And Keep The General Interest Always In Mind.
