Default Re: What\'s up with Sklansky and physicists?

I'm an engineer. We normally don't come close to physicists. Most brilliant engineers are either physicists or chemists in disguise. They straddle the line between theoretical research and practical application. The research oriented engineers usually are pretty cool people.

In the same vein, physicists are just more interesting than mathematicians. They're not all bores, but most of 'em are. Whereas a lot of physicists have this crazy zany interesting side to them.
