A special commendation should go to the operations staff, both past and
present.  In particular - Robert Eismont, John Rajari, Jim Thomas and
Nick Vander-Vliet.  Their dedication to the facility and mentoring of
junior staff members will ensure that the reactor is well positioned
for the coming fifty years.
