88 years old (Born on June 29, 1937)
Happy Birthday, Gordon! Another year older, but just like a fine Wyoming oil well, you only get better with age. From drilling deep into geology to navigating the rocky terrain of politics as a Republican representative from 1993 to 1996, you've always known how to strike gold—or at least petroleum!Your legacy in engineering and public service continues to inspire us all. May your birthday be filled with laughter, good friends, and fewer geological faults than your opponents once had arguments. Here's hoping this year brings you more success than an oil boom—and fewer spills along the way!
