10 There has been a long tradition in Nuclear Science of effective partnership between the community and the agencies in charting compelling scientific visions for the future of nuclear science. Key factors: 1)Informed scientific knowledge as the basis for recommendations 2)Mutual respect among scientific sub-disciplines 3)Commitment to the great good of nuclear science as a discipline 4)Meticulously level playing field leading to respect for the process and its outcomes 5)Appreciation for the wisdom of Ben Franklin A Long Tradition of Partnership and Stewardship
