Bea categories disasters into four groups. One involves an organization simply ignoring warning signs through over-confidence and incompetence. He thinks the BP spill falls into that category. Bea has pointed to congressional testimony that BP ignored problems with a dead battery, leaky cement job and loose hydraulic fittings. Bea also has stated that disasters don't happen because of an "evil empire" - - it's hubris, arrogance, and indolence (and like I wrote in a previous post - - two will get you three).
Bea is head of the Engineering & Project Management Program at Berkley were he teaches several classes. One is Human & Organizational Factors - - Quality and Reliability of Engineering. Supposedly he utilizes his own book and materials - - would love to get a copy of his material for this class and the others.
He also has the following on his school website - - The world needs engineers . . . .
whose truth cannot be bought,
whose word is their bond,
who put character and honesty above wealth,
who do not hesitate to take chances,
who will not lose their identity in a crowd,
who will be honest in small things as in great things,
who will make no compromise with wrong,
whose ambitions are not confined to their own selfish desires,
who will not say they do it "because everybody else does it,"
who are true to their friends through good report and evil report, in adversity as well as in prosperity,
who do no believe that shrewdness and cunning are the best qualities for winning success,
who are not ashamed to stand for truth when it is unpopular, and
who have integrity and wisdom in addition to knowledge.

ReplyDeleteI am the late night caller to Dr. Robert Bea.
On May 29, 2010, I called Dr. Bea and left him a message on his answering machine.
In this message I told him that I am the inventor of an invention called (FAST PLUGGING DEVICE FOR LEAKS IN PRESSURISED OIL WELLS), and have modified my devise slightly in order to be able to stop the spill in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition I briefly explained to him how the device works.
Then, after a few hours I called again and spoke to him personally, but he was in a harry, but I told him that I will be sending him an e-mail that will have a sketch and some explanations,
Sure enough I sent him an e-mail with an attachment of the proposed device.
Lately around the 15th of July, I got to know from the net that Dr. Bea sent my sketch to the US Coast Guard.
In addition, when Dr. Bea saw the device being lowered into the well, he marveled for the similarity of the device that was used to stop the spill and the one he received from me (The Anonymous caller).
My phone number showed anonymous on Dr. Bea’s phone, because I phoned him with a calling card.
But I am still asking myself;
How I can be an anonymous when I have sent Dr. Bea in that e-mail my cell phone number: (613 853 2615), and my name and e-mil are clear on the e-mail he received on May 29, 2010.
I leave this to the inquiry that is coming to determine the responsibility of every one, and why my solution was not applied since the USCG received from me on May 15, 2010, long before Dr. Bea sent the sketch to them.
Best regards and admiration to Dr. Bea and his honesty.

Here is the real proof that me the Inventor Afif Abou-Raphael is the father of the plug that eradicated the BP's oil spill and that is going to be the worldwide offshore drilling.
