I removed this material:

"On the scientific area we have

Brian Russell (Chair) Vice-President, Veritas DGC Inc., Calgary ... Brian H. Russell has spent his career working in all aspects of exploration geophysics. He initially joined Chevron Standard in Calgary in 1976 as a seismic interpreter, subsequently working for Chevron Geosciences in both Calgary and Houston in the areas of seismic processing and research. After leaving Chevron in 1981, Dr. Russell joined Teknica Resources Development in Calgary as a senior geophysicist. In 1983, he moved to Veritas Seismic Ltd. in a research and training position. In 1987, Dr. Russell, together with Dan Hampson, founded Hampson-Russell Software Services Ltd., a company that develops advanced seismic software for the petroleum industry. ... Since September, 2002, Hampson-Russell has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Veritas DGC Inc., where Dr. Russell is currently Vice-President.

Dr. Russell is still actively involved in both geophysical research and training, and presents courses on seismic technology throughout the world. He holds a B.Sc. Honours in Physics and Geophysics from the University of Saskatchewan and a M.Sc. in Geophysics from the University of Durham, England. He recently completed his Ph.D. in Geophysics at the University of Calgary, where his research involves the application of multivariate statistics and neural networks to the delineation of reservoir parameters using seismic attributes.

Dr. Russell has also been active as a volunteer with several geophysical societies. He was president of the Canadian SEG (CSEG) in 1991, received the CSEG Meritorious Service Award in 1995, the CSEG Medal in 1999, and honorary membership in 2001.

I don't know if this other B.R. deserves his own article; if so, somebody else will have to do him one as I don't know how anyway. The actress Cheryl Ladd is married to yet ANOTHER "Brian Russell" (unless the geophysicist above has been hanging out in Hollywood, lol)....how about a disambiguation page for this name? Again, I don't know how to make one, so thanks to anyone who fixes this.Songflower (talk) 07:10, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
