Ian, welcome to Titans.

Ian Hore-Lacy – Who Loved God's Creation.

Bret Kugelmass Listen, you're a bit of a legend. I feel like whenever somebody goes to answer something about nuclear on the internet, they inevitably end up at a page that you've written. So you are like the internet's knowledge of nuclear. Is that right? Ian Hore-Lacy Oh, well, I have taken great pleasure in just collating information. Having a brain that doesn't retain a lot if you will, but collating and organizing it, so that's resulted in the information papers, the big range of them on the World Nuclear Association website.

Bret Kugelmass Yeah, it's just so funny, because whenever I'm talking to a lay person and they want to ask me something about nuclear, sure enough, they reference- that page is like their bait- when they Google like, how much uranium is there - or whatever it is - it's like they always end up on one of those pages. But maybe we can just kind of take a step back.

I'd love to just learn a little bit about you. Where did you grow up? And then went to university at the University of New England - which has nothing to do with the United States, but this is in the northern part of New South Wales - and did a science degree and got hooked on environmental stuff. And then I spent two to three years doing various youth ministry type of things, then a Master's.

I was a senior biology master at school for three years and then I saw this magnificent- and got very much involved in environmental education at that point. I saw this fantastic ad in the newspaper for a company I'd never heard of, but turned out to be one of the two biggest mining companies in Australia wanting an environmental scientist.

The job description was about twice as good as anything I could dream up myself, so I applied for it and somehow got it.
