That's right!! There are three kinds of scientists; the good ones, and then there's those that can't even count!!

Are you sure you told that joke correctly? I would have thought it went something like "a climate scientist once told me that there are three kinds of scientists; the good ones, and those that can't even count"!

Or do I detect a smidge of self deprication there? :lol:

Or maybe not ... :wink:

In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice there is.

Sometimes it seems everyone wants to be an engineer.
Just today I saw a job title Cost Engineer.

It won't be long now before Polywell limps into line behind tokamaks in the 'flunked out fusion' queue. But I'll give it another.. how long was it now?... 12mths or so before assuming the worst.

awww.....i was hoping for the polywell to atleast partly work :(
