That's interesting. If I ever met any kind of scientist I'd be like "Wow, that's so cool," and ask questions about what you're researching, etc.
Are you a cop?
The article was about police who were suspicious of science and scientists doing experiments in home labs.
My question about whether felideon (the commenter who said he/she would like say "wow that's so cool" upon meeting a scientist was a cop or not was a serious question. We could use more police with a science-friendly attitude.
A part of me always wanted to be a scientist. Hopefully I'll start a (programming) project to help in scientific research one day.
