Interesting List
Physics... that's science in theory, sometimes in practice
Chemistry...that is science in both ways
Geology....yes, on both counts
Engineering, a resounding YES, on both counts and particularly because it
is so very pratical.
Biology... now there you have WAY too many variables to control, so it
can hardly be called a true science
Medicine.... no way, it is half lies (even learned drs say only half of
what they teach is true,
Not sure who made the list. I think it was John.
What would you call Geometry ?
Many people hate the stuff, I wonder why ?
I loved it, and even took an elective, "Solid Geometry".
Had to give up my lunch hour on the days I had that subject.
I am not saying it is a Science. It does promote thinking, reasoning, and
logic, more so than some of the others.
Ummm.. do you have any idea how many times what 'we' *knew* to be true in
mathematics, or geology, or chemistry, etc, turned out to be *not* true?
My idea on the phrase, "Computer Science". Almost like
Federal Reserve, Two Words, Two Lies, not to mention the Fairness
Doctrine. Not very fair for sure.
Engineering, a resounding YES, on both counts and particularly because it
is so very practical.
I would think they are all Practical. But I have reservations on
Engineering due to interesting experiences.
ALL Facts, no theories in my statements.
I can give you some comical facts on Engineers.
People ask me if I am an Engineer. My answer.........
NO, but I have spent my whole life correcting their mistakes. That should
count for something.
One wrote this statement. ( Not the exact words, but the exact meaning )
" If this component shall fail or that component shall fail or any
component shall fail, the system shall still work?.
I said, Mr. Lane, that sounds good but no ones system works like that. He
said, OK, I will strike that out.
This same guy made me epoxy plug in relays into the sockets because the
system would not work with the relays unplugged.
Evaluate your car with the carburetor removed.
The classic I always loved, and many use this.
"No matter how I said do it, You do it right, comply with all applicable
codes, and everything must work properly".
Logical of course, putting something like that is writing make one wonder.
Engineers have gaps in their knowledge. Often they request that me or my
company travel to large colleges, make large surveys, and write full and
complete specifications, which they publish and it appears they did it. No
credits to the ones who did the work.
In many cases, I have designed and built systems they could not if their
life depended on it.
Once a few engineers traveled from a large college to review some work I
had done. I talked to them a while and asked them,
"Who is going to help you design this system". They honestly
answered, "We don't know".
Generally they are relatively competent, if they don't step across the fence.
>> Engineering, a resounding YES, on both counts and

How can anything be practical that does not work or is incomplete?
