Thank you. I hate that "science" takes credit for a ton of things that are actually discovered / perfected by engineers.

Often things reported in the press as "new science" appear to be engineering. But then I'm sure there's a deal of engineering in science labs and vice-versa.

FWIW I'm much closer to being a scientist than an engineer.
