LLNL employee "does good" story.

Yeah. Leaving LLNL is always a happy ending for the employee (retains sanity) and the lab (reduces head count)

Well at least he has a Ph.D.

Three Vice Presidents of technical divisions at Sandia National Laboratories do not have a Ph.D.: Hruby, Walker, Vahle.

Adam Rowen a manager at Sandia Livermore does not have a Ph.D. either.

The previous 3 individuals are the first ever Vice Presidents without a Ph.D. in Science or Engineering to lead technical divisions at Sandia. A quick search on the internet shows that Adam Rowen went to a school in New Mexico.

Steve Renfro deputy AD Nuclear Weapons, BS without PhD (also comes from a New Mexico school)

Thanks for reminding us again. Keep up the good work. Mentioning this atleast once in each new thread should be the minimal level of coverage.

Yeah, one-trick ponies still amuse the three-year-olds.

I think Abraham Lincoln had 18 months of formal education. I guess he wasn't qualified either.

Lincoln was a self-educated lawyer. In those days, diligent self-study was every bit as good as, and sometimes better than, classroom learning, which was sporadic and very variable. He was also a party leader and state legislator in Illinois, as well as a member of the US Congress. So he was as well qualified to be President as any formally trained lawyer with that kind of experience would be today. Only in today's world (in the US) does lack of education strongly point to lack of intelligence and/or ambition.

And I bet Lincoln knew the truth about Deuterium EOS, too

As if there were any "truth" in that.

Adam Rowen is no longer the manager of the materials chemistry department! He still does not have a Ph.D.
