Salutations to Prof. Dr. Robert G. Wetzel

.... a Scientific Director of Soil & Water Conservation Society of Metro Halifax (SWCSMH)
and a 1992 recipient of the highest international honour in Limnology,
the Naumann-Thienemann Medal! ....

...... and his professional altruism concept ......

{Bob departed Mother Earth on Monday April 18, 2005 at 21:00 hrs and the universe may never see another such altruistic scientist again!}

"I am an avid consumer of Hutchinson's words and syntheses with an appreciation similar to that held for Darwin; both are members of a group that appears only rarely in a particular discipline, perhaps once in a generation. As one reporter wrote, Hutchinson was a sage of enlightenment. It was a privilege to have known him, largely through his works. It is an honor to be associated by means of the Hutchinson Medal" ...... Bob Wetzel's response on receiving the 1992 Hutchinson Medal of the ASLO!
