Brady Mackowiak has joined the Luxuriant Facial Hair Club for Scientists (LFHCfS) and the Luxuriant Former Hair Club for Scientists (LFHCfS). He says:
Mr. Mackowiak is an engineer in the Fuel Fabrication Department at Idaho National Laboratory where he works on application of fabrication process to uranium fuel systems. He has chosen to focus his hair growth entirely in the facial region where his beard is a source of numerous discussions among his colleagues. His luxuriant facial hair is (many feel) the primary reason his visage occupied the lede photograph in a New York Times article. Unfortunately the face shield and leather jacket (worn as personal protection equipment, not just a fashion statement) serve to obscure much of the beard’s magnificence.
