SAN DIEGO MEETING

In last month's Access to Energy, we reported that the San Diego meeting on the weekend of June 13-15, 1997, will include presentations by Sallie Baliunas, Bernard Cohen, Michael Dowe, Gordon Ed-wards, Robert Jastrow, Cresson Kearny, Stanford Penner, Michael Sanera, Edward Teller, and Robert Zubrin. The program for the meeting has now been completed with the following additional speakers: Jeff Cooper, the world's foremost authority on the defensive use of firearms, will speak about this subject. Jeff Cooper is not only a world champion (the hotel facilities will, unfortunately, not accommodate a demonstration) and distinguished representative of the best traditions of American military and civilian defense, he is also an accomplished author whose practical and intellectual insights have had a greater impact upon firearms use than those of any other living American.

Donald D. Derr, a colleague of Michael Dowe, will co-deliver the presentation on electron-beam irradiation for preserving food.

Lou Guzzo, veteran reporter, editor, and radio and television commentator, will speak about environmental matters from the point of view of the two books that he co-authored with Dixy Lee Ray, Environmental Overkill and Trashing the Planet .

Martin Kamen, discoverer of carbon 14 and 1996 winner of the En-rico Fermi Award, will provide a few words of wisdom as he did at last year's meeting. Dr. Kamen may, in fact, be brought to us through the benefits of radiation hormesis. He received very large doses during the years that he operated the Berkeley cyclotron for E. O. Lawrence and carried out his famous work on carbon 14 and the use of radioactive tracers in biochemistry. He has enjoyed a long life in good health.

Bruce Kimball, principal research scientist and colleague of Sher-wood Idso at the U. S. Water Conservation Laboratory in Phoenix, Arizona, will speak about his extensive experimental work on the effect of increased carbon dioxide levels upon the growth of plants.

Jane Orient, Executive Director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, will speak about growing government impediments to the ethical practice of medicine. Dr. Orient led AAPS efforts to defeat the Clinton socialized health plan and is widely credited with having been instrumental in its demise.

Myron Pollycove, Emeritus Professor of Radiology at the University of California at San Francisco, will speak about radiation hor-mesis, the beneficial health effects of low-level ionizing radiation.

Frederick Seitz, past President of the United States National Academy of Sciences and Chairman of the Board of the George C. Marshall Institute, will speak about politicized science and the IPPC report. Dr. Seitz's analysis of unethical actions in the preparation of this 1996 report was published in The Wall Street Journal . As a result of this analysis and Dr. Seitz's great personal stature within the international scientific community, efforts by the IPPC and others to promote the global warming hypothesis regardless of its lack of experimental verification were significantly exposed and politically damaged.

Hans Sennholz, President of the Foundation for Economic Education and greatly respected expert on free-market economics, will speak about "The Bull Market and the Bubble Phenomenon.'' I will have the privilege of introducing the speakers and am also listed as the final speaker on Sunday afternoon. Since the program includes world-class authorities on virtually every topic that we have featured in Access to Energy, I suspect a new form of censorship. These people are going to leave me with absolutely nothing further to say.

Registration is $95 for the meeting, which includes two luncheons and the banquet dinner. Details were given in last month's Access to Energy. Telephone DDP at (520) 325-2680 for registration.
