Deletion of James M. Russell

Comment: but discount the previous inane opinion). Despite having a named professorship, I'm a little skeptical of his pass of #C5, because "professor of teaching excellence" sounds more like a title given to someone doing an unwanted but important teaching task than for scholarly excellence, and because his cv shows he was given it at the same time as promotion to full professor while #C5 is really looking for something that's a step above full. However, doing a Google Scholar search of his name and looking only at the earth science publications among the results (because he has a common name and there is at least one other well-cited James M. Russell) shows a pass of #C1
