Well, I know I wrote something like "the stupid man", but of course I didn't
really mean that he is stupid. He's a chemist and I am sure he is good at
that and some other things as well. Maybe "stupid" wasn't the best choice of
a word in this case, there are probably a better word for it. He's maybe not
even "ignorant". Maybe "uninformed" would describe him in this very case,
but that sounds a bit lame... ;P  Well, he is certainly a better chemist
than I am...
