My comments where not directed against living people.
More towards what scientists are portrayed as.. I might be wrong but most of
the scientist types in th emovies/TV are generally supporting characters,who
are  brains but no cool.. (except for maybe Dr. Jones (Indiana)).

This topic might not be for this area/newsgroup or maybe it is..
Question, how do you all "scientists" see how holywood has portrrayed you
all in movies and TV?? (including news and the media)???
