Clemson is developing a Computational Sciences program. This program
has courses which are interdisciplinary in nature. While the engineering/
scientific content and the mathematical/numerical content are reasonably
easy to deal with, the computer science content is not. Computer science,
in this context, means software, languages, etc and not hardware.

I am trying to survey attitudes of scientific programmers, whether in
industry or in academia, on prevailing attitudes relative to how well
computer science helps---or hinders---the development of scientific and
engineering codes. These may relate to such things as langauges, software
development methods/tools, algorithms etc.

Please send any comments by e-mail. Flames welcome if they are clean :-)
and even better if they're funny. I would also be interested in horrid
examples and war stories.
