Didn't you know that "Science commnicator" is the new pc term for "useless, over-qualified post grad with no tangible usefulness for qualifications on which to draw income". Now, in a day and age where technology, and therefore computer science reign - and seemingly no such thing as a useless computing qualification- how very geeky indeed must this woman be!mei ultra vireshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704612191663381349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20416527.post-1146356682311502062006-04-30T10:24:00.000+10:002006-04-30T10:24:00.000+10:00Yikes!

I have a small difficulty with the notion of a 'science communicator' anyway, but they certainly shouldn't be recruited from the computing department, it would seem (my guess is she was 'nominated' anyway).philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12011647023598364166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20416527.post-1146317474315659462006-04-29T23:31:00.000+10:002006-04-29T23:31:00.000+10:00With all due respect - Associate professor Richard...With all due respect - Associate professor Richards is full of shit! I became a scientist because I believed I could make a difference, and I was sure there was still a bit of undiscovered frontier left waiting for me. I didn't decide for a long time what type of scientist I would be, but there was never any question that a scientist was what I would become.

We were half way up a mountain in Nepal and he asked if I knew an Aussie scientist called Sir Mark Elephant.<BR/><BR/>Sigh . . .<BR/><BR/>(That's what you get when you study computing.)<BR/><BR/>Cheers, PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
