Mr. Al Farabee
TO: US Department of Energy
Washington State Department of Ecology
The following comments are offered for inclusion in the Public Record. These comments were officially presented during the public meeting on September 24, 2002 at Yakima, Washington regarding the TPA suggested changes for closure of the Fast Flux Test Facility.
(PUBLIC RECORD)
For the record, my name is Gordon Allen Pross. I reside in Ellensburg, Washington.
I am strongly opposed to the suggested revisions to the TPA target dates. I am strongly opposed to any advancement of the target dates which would deny a full and thorough hearing, detailed evaluation and pragmatic mission realignment of the FFTF. I am definitely opposed to the subtle, sneaky efforts of the Department of Energy and Washington State Ecology to destroy the finest research nuclear reactor in the world.
Former First Lady Mrs. Ronald Reagan taught us all a valuable lesson, just say NO! "Just say NO!!" has been a successful, frank answer to potential evil actions in America. In that same vein... I say NO, to dismantling Humanity's Fast Flux Test Facility. And I say "NO" to any attempts to move forward the TPA target dates in order to unlawfully take actions that would further harm the FFTF.
I would like to read from Sam Reed's Washington Secretary of State WWW Election 2002 site from off of my personal voters pamphlet statement so be it my 3rd consecutive attempt to garner the United States House of Representatives 4th Congressional seat.
And I quote..."Title: Resurrect Americans Will to Policy
"I hold the highest office of the land. I am an American citizen; overseas veteran, degreed, gifted, enlightened native born son of Yakima."
My position regarding energy:
"Energy
Double the core of your Fast Flux Test Facility, ignite waste at Hanford for fuel and light-up every light bulb in the 4th District into 2027. Turn our Tri-Cities into a Mecca to Cure Cancer with isotopes from your Crown Jewel Reactor.
Mantra:
Statesman Pross, a citizenry servant, offering bedrock truth.
Gordon Allen Pross: Creator/Political Renaissance Ignited Via the Resurrection of Humanity's Will to policy Congress 2002." End of quote.
The message is plain and simple... our Nation needs the FFTF... our citizens will benefit greatly from the products of the FFTF... proper use of the FFTF will enhance our local and regional economy. Demolishing the FFTF is not only stupid and non-sensical... it is insane!!
My brother Bruce William Pross lost his WAR to cancer... a two year battle that decimated the body of my older brother, by then I was three years old, I watched the Nuclear Medical Community's failed efforts to save Bruce's life. They were unable to save his life because we did not have the right tool for the right job. Our lack of medical technology allowed my brother to die. Today, we can change that devastating feature of cancerous deaths. I believe we have the right tool now in the FFTF. It took my family over a 30-year period to pay off the final score of medical debt in our gallant, priceless battle to save the life of our dearest loved one, Bruce. Along goes our FFTF in the field of priceless endeavors. For thousands of families throughout the world, the FFTF would provide not only a cure for cancer, but would also allow medical treatments at an affordable price, without months and months of suffering.
How can our government officials... from the lowest staff levels up to the highest level decision-makers turn their backs on such a worthy, miracle-working, life-saving facility?? How can our public servants plead such a wide span of ignorance?? How can our Legislators allow their gutless vanity to destroy the hundreds of thousands of cancer sufferers?? There is no acceptable answer from these people who would allow a life-saving facility to be destroyed... NO ACCEPTABLE ANSWER!!
On my website of <GordonAllenPross.Com> I elaborate further on your FFTF.
Here is another perspective that decries any of your governmental efforts to move forward the TPA target dates. Is it not interesting what we find under discovery? The formulas yet to be unlocked w/i the Fast Flux Test Facility hold the ability to fashion, mold and to bring to term the anointing keys for unfolding the pesky perplexing questions and answers to address our Heavens within a vast Universe from right out of Washington's backyard. Such as: (in-part)
MISSION: NASA
mission of space exploration...
National budgetary concerns reaching into the BILLIONS of dollars... of which at least $10 billion a year could be eliminated by using the medical isotope products of the FFTF...
Formulas to liberate Humanity with cures for DISEASES through their specifics
MISSION:
HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES
World Security, to include but not limited to National Security. FFTF holds the key for PEACE throughout Humanity for the next two decades.
MISSION: HUMANITARIAN & WORLD PEACE
FAITH & ACTS MISSION: AMERICAN INGENUITY
Let's together accomplish a true humanitarian renaissance...
In my 2000 election cycle I was asked some questions by a little outfit from out of Belleview Washington that of CGS Common Sense Government. "Have you ever heard of such a thing?" (laughter)...
Fostering common-sense in government "O my Lord..." (laughter once again....) My message to the following interrogatory continues to be broadcast as we speak @ GordonAllenPross.Com
In your estimation, what one program deserves more support than it currently gets?
Medical Research:
Why?
Traditionally, the avenue of approach for finding control and cures for diseases that plague humanity has been through trial and error, and by blind accident. While scientists look for a specific answer for a defined condition, they often end up finding a cure for something completely different from what they originally set out to find. Today, due to the hype of the media, it is much too easy to funnel financial gold dust down a gopher hole as a potential means to an end, when a popular medical issue is faced with scrutiny.
I pray that our medical research capital can be directed across the board for a wider scope of achievement in an all-out effort to win the war on illness. Thus, our great physicians will no longer bear the cross of being "Ferrari mechanics working on only Volkswagens," as it were. In the future, our physicians will treat health not disease.
The road to this end lies w/i the Fast Flux Test Facility.
Save Humanity, Resurrect Americans' Health!
FAST FLUX TEST FACILITY is a key to answering this challenge...
DO NOT decommission and destroy one of humanity's best hopes for future health and cure of cancer!!
