Re: Road Trash



Dear Ron:
I am glad to hear that, and any misunderstandings are apologized for.  You
do raise some important issues though, and I don't see an answer to them
any time soon.  I do see an industry-led effort to 'standardize' the
process of bringing a jr-tech into the business and leading them through
the process of NRRPT registration, Health Physicist and CHP.  One problem I
see is the availability of formal education as it directly relates to our
profession.  As kids grow up, they want to be an engineer, a doctor,
lawyer, etc.  I haven't met a kid yet who wants to grow up to be a Health
Physicist.  The public needs to understand this profession, its importance
to the communities and industry, and the great careers offered by this
profession.  For that, Bill Lipton is right on the money when he says we're
all in it together.  I decided to hang my hat here, I'm proud of it and
will continue to encourage others to do the same.
The opinions are of my own and not of my employer.
