Talk:Jerome Wiesner

message: I note from this presentation at MIT by David P. DiVincenzo that Jerome Wiesner is Stephen Wiesner's father.  Minor trivia perhaps, but worth adding?

thread_title:  Trivia? 

message: I realize this is still categorized as a stub, but really the meat of this article seems to be missing. The intro says Weisner favored arms control and opposed human spaceflight, but there's absolutely nothing here. Andrew Chaikin's book, A Man on the Moon, reputedly the source for Franken's portrayal in From the Earth to the Moon (TV miniseries), possibly might be a good place to start? The body of the article seems to focus more on Weisner's inclusion on Nixon's "enemies list" (plus, the sources seem to be weighted toward MIT), a possible WP:WEIGHT issue.

thread_title:  Missing info 

message: This sentence was extremely confusing:
"Wiesner assembled a team, conducted hearings that included Rachel Carson, and on May 15, 1963 tabled "The Use of Pesticides"."
Perhaps British English uses the verb table in the sense of tabulating, or in a wider sense, writing a document, which seemed to be the sense intended here. Americans (one of whom Wiesner indisputably was) are used to associate the verb "table" with a parlimentarian body sending a proposal, issue, etc., into a virtual "black hole".
Let's please be careful out there. JustinTime55 (talk) 21:00, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

message: Would an interview with transcript with Jerome Wiesner from 1986 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_DD3A084107E94632B6AD7D428A966304 (I have a conflict of interest; otherwise I would add it myself.)
