Today we announce that 10 year staff veteran @Astronuc has decided, due to real life work load, to retire from the Mentor group. PF has long benefited from his unique skill set in nuclear engineering, his dedication to the PF mission and loyalty toward the community. We are happy to say @Astronuc plans to stick around and continue contributing just in a different capacity. Thanks for all your efforts good friend!

On the flip side we are pleased to announce that @anorlunda has joined the Mentor group! He will be helping out a lot in the engineering forums filling a bit of @Astronuc's shoes. @anorlunda has quickly risen as a leader and trusted member in the community. We're thrilled to have him aboard and looking forward to him doing great things!

Thanks, folks for the kind words.

I retired as a mentor/moderator, but I'll still be around to participate in the forums, primarily Nuclear Engineering and other Engineering forums as a Science Advisor, and as time permits.
