Ronnie A(aka Ronald C. Alexander,
EE) has been a radiation effects specialist since learning the
trade of Nuclear Submarine ELT, ie. rad-chem tech, in Rickover's
Navy in 1974. While working on Nuclear Fuel Logistics
modeling at Bonneville
Power administration (that's when I first joined Mensa), I
was an Optical Communications Fellow at Oregon Graduate Center
for Research and Study in 1979... and I left the federal
government in 1984 as Microprocessor
Tactical Gamma Hardness Investigator at Harry Diamond Labs - the
lead lab for tactical radiation effects evaluation. I've been
with FDA since april, 1991. I now work with other FDA Consumer
Safety Officers west of the Rockies certified to inspect
facilities under the Mammography
Quality Standards act. We have four Certified FDA MQSA
Inspectors in the Pacific Region to inspect over forty Federal
Facilities, and audit about 2000 facility inspections in nine
States and the Pacific basin! With the herculean efforts of our
contract States we assure that american women get consistently good quality
mammograms.
What did I do between 1984 and 1991? Well, I spent a couple of
years as Intel's
integrated systems manufacturing Quality Engineer, and then
went on to develop missile navigation and guidance software for
GE and Northrop - but now I'm back monitoring zoomies again! I am
a Senior Member of the Nuclear and Plasma Physics Society of
IEEE, and I was appointed a member of the Public Health Service's
Engineer Profession advisory Committee in 1995.
[Ronnie]Addie (Addie
Lee Alexander - the former Kay Ann Joncas) has been a volunteer
throughout our wanderings across america. When we met, she was a
Nurse aide, but quickly became involved in volunteering for the
Washington Park Zoo Nursery, Portland,
OR. On weekends she would show up at the Zoo, present her
special volunteer ID, and make sure the babies were being raised
right. We raised tapers, lions, pumas, elephants, bears, and just
about anything needing a good attitude... When Delila the chimp,
who later had the largest vocabulary of any chimp anywhere, was
abandoned by her mom, it was Addie's approach that kept her alive.
In our travels Addie has been a Red Cross volunteer, where
she made sure that instructors like me had the proper credentials
(and, of course, helped when I taught advanced first aid and
emergency care classes;) she was a Civil air Patrol Observer for
Chesepeake Bay patrols; she's been the assistant curator for the Berkshire
Museum, where she cared for an aquarium housing everything
from a nurse shark and armadillo to tarantulas and red bellied
turtles... she worked hard in the reestablishment of redbellies
to the wild! Most recently, Addie has been an officer of the Los
angeles Courts to accompany mothers visiting with their children
that the Court has in its custody.
