Is there a hard line between science and art?

I lean towards Richard Gabriel's and Kevin Sullivan's views on this one.

"How do artists and scientist work? The same."

I was actually going to argue something vaguely similar, but was more busy with writing something else (a "professional musician" may not be necessarily that much different from a scientist or engineer, and a "mad scientist" may not necessarily be too much different from traditional notions of an artist).
