Nuclear Energy     Can We Talk?     Bringing Science To Citizens     Let's Re-Visit Nuclear Energy     Think About It!
 

All information and research on this website is gathered and used with written permission from the
participating authors, contributors & advisors concerning nuclear science, energy and waste repository data!
US Nuclear Energy is an independent foundation and not supported by any industry or
nuclear association but by individual support in order to retain our independence.

Our mission is to influence change in public opinion towards
knowledgeable citizens about nuclear energy and waste repository issues.

“Our freedoms can only
be maintained by the advancement of technologies that serve mankind—
not advancing technology puts Freedom at Risk and
our freedom is
threatened because we
don't take the time to
participate in it” GJD

Unfortunately our world does not recognize "superstar scientists" as they do entertainers.

 Our country needs a new PROGRAM . . "The Annual Academia Awards" Identifying Americas scientists to Americas Citizens!

 Our hats are off to our
Contributing Scientists for their
"superstar science"!

"A Little Help From Our Advisors & Contributors"

Our Advisory Board consists of people we contact on a regular basis to review, critique, and evaluate the content and direction of our website and the promotional materials that we publish and distribute. Contributors are people who have participated by producing a "public presentation" of their related field of expertise in the nuclear industry and/or waste repository science and engineering fields. All of these distinguished people are volunteering their assistance to serve on our Advisory Board. Their interests and contributions are growing and are also attracting the attention of other scientists and engineers in the nuclear fields throughout the country. If you have an interest in joining this mission please contact us.

Gary J. Duarte
Director, US Nuclear Energy

AREAS OF SPECIALIZATION (A layman with a mission). At nearly 60 I grew up in Maine playing ice hockey, music and enjoying one of the most beautiful states in America. I lived there about 38 years and moved to Nevada in 1984. I saw the Maine Yankee Nuclear Power plant go online in 1972 and it produced electrical energy through 1997 a 25 year successful history.

My knowledge of nuclear energy is that of an average citizen, I am not a scientist. An entrepreneurial background began at the age of about seven or eight talking an employee of a lumber company into building me a rock maple shoe shine box for a percentage of my earnings, he did, I did, I paid, I still have it! I served as Executive Vice President of the Maine Jaycees, organized the first statewide multi-chapter March of Dimes Walk-A-Thon which was offered as a model to the National Jaycees, Tulsa, OK. Owned and operated Duarte Typesetting Company for 17 years, the first computerized book phototypesetting company in the State of Maine. Developed a software application Stylo-Type I, the first "Mac" based mnemonic coding program to link a Macintosh computer to a Linotronic typesetting machine.

Co-Authored a paper "The SGML Solution to System Independence" by Gary J. Duarte, President, DeskTop ComPosition Systems, Inc. & J.Sperling Martin, Vice President, Aspen Systems Corp. 1990. SGML (standard generalized markup language) was a text based mnemonic markup code, a predecessor and included as part of HTML (hypertext markup language) now used in WEB document processing.  As an industry specialist I taught the Introduction to Printing & Graphics at Truckee Meadows Community College several years, Reno Nevada and worked several years in the casino entertainment realm on stage work and as an audio video technician. NOW, I really have an interest. US Nuclear Energy a grassroots directive to educate America towards expanding nuclear energy development and waste repository management. Retire? Get serious!

Dr. John McCarthy
Retired Professor Emeritus (2001)
Computer Science
Stanford University
Stanford, CA

AREAS OF SPECIALIZATION: John McCarthy has been Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University since 1962. His research is mainly in artificial intelligence. Long ago he originated the Lisp programming language and the initial research on general purpose time-sharing computer systems. More can be found in his Web page John McCarthy's home page. As a public service, he has created a Web page on the sustainability of material progress. Material progress is indeed sustainable.
