They never asked me this question. Neither any of my friends. Or family. Surveys like this piss me off because they apply a sample of 3,000 people to a population of 330,000,000 and think that’s valid.
Apologies for the blogpost.

I’m a graduate student in engineering and I can’t name a living scientist. They’re all brainlets living on the shoulders of giants. I could name most of the influential scientists from Western history, though
