I know about bioinformatics and the contributions of biology to computer science and vice versa. I've personally worked in both field sampling and data analysis. My overly offensive generalized statement was a light jab towards field biologists i've known, including my own friends who i've debated on this subject with, who tend to dislike computers and will go as far to avoid even excel and hand write their data while doing all math on a calculator. It really wasn't meant to be taken seriously and I suppose would go above the head of those who haven't spent a lot of time in the field with biologists.

Okay, sorry about the misinterpretation, but it should have been clear to you that ggp was referring to computational biologists or bioinformaticians, making your observations rather unrelated.
