The Good Doctor Fry: Middle aged, living in Mexico, have lived & worked in Northern Illinois, Chicago, Champaign-Urbana, Washington DC, College Park, (MD), Fort Collins, Kiev(Ukraine), and Merida (Yucatan). I have worked for 27 years as a public health scientist, specializing in indentifying and cleaning-up contamination in: water,  waste-water, air, plants, wildlife, waste, etc. I have worked in academia, the private sector, and for various national governments to improve public health and environmental quality in the United States, Mexico, Canada, Scotland, Italy, and Ukraine. I taught various chemistry, statistics, and electronics classes for 10 years at 2 universities. While helping run one of the top three environmental laboratories in the US, we made major contributions to environmental clean-ups of radioactivity, organic and inorganic industrial contaminants, high explosives, pesticides & herbicides, and heavy metals at every major US Department of Energy production site (except one), in addition to 13 years of clean-ups at major Army, Navy, Air Force, and Army Corps of Engineers sites,  serving as certified consultants on public health issues to over 20 different US States. I have personally participated in and supported significant USGS, USEPA, USDOE, & USDOD studies that removed tetra-ethyl lead from gasoline,  established radioactive ground water standards in private and public wells,  and I developed and authored 4 USEPA analytical methods. As a public health professional, I was the first US scientist invited into the CIS after the break-up of the Former Soviet Union, to evaluate Public Health and Scientific issues, as a part of the US AID EPT program.
