Ran across this the other day.
They're all entertainers, it's just that Dolph Lundgren is more qualified to be "The Science Guy" than Bill Nye is. And punk rock singer/rhythm guitarist Dexter Holland is a good contender, too.
Who'd you rather have: the MIT Fulbright Scholar, the Doctoral student in Viral Oncology and Proteomics, or "Bill Nye - the arrest everyone who disagrees with me guy"?
In the World of the High Tech Redneck, the Graybeard is the old guy who earned his gray by making all the mistakes, and tries to keep the young 'uns from repeating them. Silicon Graybeard is my term for an old hardware engineer; a circuit designer. The focus of this blog is on doing things, from radio to home machine shops and making all kinds of things, along with comments from a retired radio engineer, that run from tech, science or space news to economics; from firearms to world events.

Don't forget Professor Brian May, astrophysics and part time guitar player with Queen!
ReplyDeleteAnd Mayim Bialik with a neuroscience doctorate.
ReplyDeleteBill "My Sex Junk" Nye. 'Nuff said.
ReplyDeleteSmarter and way better looking than Mr. Pencil Neck. Hypocrisy most foul.
ReplyDeleteAlmost mentioned Brian May, who was (IIRC) working on his PhD when this "crazy little thing called" Queen popped up and demanded his presence. Went back to finish the degree after their road touring days settled down. Also has a guitar company, that makes his designs.
ReplyDeleteI've read about Mayim Bialik but never seen any of her shows.
