Re: Environmental modeling position at EPA

Zack, I think you should communicate your thoughts directly to Tony Wolbarst
at EPA (maybe in slightly toned-down language!).  Tony is not a "PC flack"
and my experience with EPA is that there are some people who will take this
seriously.  That's why I emailed him.

been pointed out by Andy Karam, is another reason.  I consider myself to be
a rational human being, a scientist, not some Politically Correct flack that
tailors my public statements to someone esle's political agenda.  Yes, I do
have my own agenda based on my thoughts and experience, as do we all.  I
just don't sell mine to the highet bidder.
