• Pacific theater weatherman, WWII (shipped off '42 or '43? returned 8/12/1945, source?)
• Ph.D. in Geology, for graduation dates see Forever bobbing baubles

• • Add to: List_of_University_of_Chicago_alumni#Science_and_technology
• joined the survey 1950

• Transferred to work under Dr. Suess in 1953, but Suess left to go to Scripps in 1956 and Meyer took over the C-14.
• Helped develop the procedure for pre-treatment of samples, which was critical to get consistent ¹⁴
  C results, and the CO₂ sample extraction, CO₂ purification, and reduction of CO₂ to C₂H₂.
