Dear Jayb,

You qualify to put in your two bits.

Now, what else do you know outside of engineering?

On the social engineers from the social 'sciences'(sic)*,

'sciences'* - Many would be experiencing increasing difficulty swallowing the social sciences' claims to be sciences, where there are so many examples of trash science about and being spruiked as 'real'.

-Just to help the fight here between the claimed social 'scientist' and engineers, some of the real scientists (and thank God for them!).

The story of Mr/Ms 'O' - no science, just emotion.

Some theme music to listen to while looking out for those real engineers (Yikes!!),

Dear onthebeach,

I suggest using humanities when describing the Arts such as history, archaeology, anthropology, sociology, classics, modern languages.

Social science is just a fancy way of saying economics.

You are saying then that anthropology (to take one example) is not a science.

Jolly good.

Watch out for those Engineers, the real ones.

Dear onthebeach,

Engineers aren't scientists. They're engineers.

Scientists try to discover and explain how the physical world and universe work.

Engineers do design and construction of everyday works e.g. roads, machines, motors, bridges, etc.

You should not confuse the two. However, some engineers are also qualified as scientists, having done degrees in one of the sciences. Irony is that one needs to have a degree in science to be a scientist but does not need a degree in engineering to be an engineer. I think this shows how much more important scientists are.
