"The principal satisfaction to me personally is being able to use geologic knowledge and the science of geology to save lives, to literally improve public safety, to protect people's property from floods and earthquakes and other hazards which are so predominant in the part of the country that we live in, at the edge of the continent where the world is coming apart at the seams."


"The mining experience over a decade of working in the minerals industry, really gave me a basis for going to work in state government in an organization that regulates mining in order to protect the environment from some of the consequences of mining and to insure that we can produce minerals effectively on the one hand and also do it without impacting the environment long-term. And it was by having a background in the mineral business that I was able to secure a job in state government."
