as JasonRox said "I'm willing to settle for an even deeper understanding and no car. I enjoy life as it is and a BMW wouldn't change anything." I must say that's how I feel, but when I talk to those "successful" types, especially those who are family, they always tell me that is an...

JasonRox: I hope you can tell the difference between what was said in joke, and what was said in seriousness. I meant for this to not be taken personally by anyone, I just wanted people's own opinions. Going back, I think you took offense to someone making a comment (which wasn't to be taken...

and special thanks to moonbear!

Thank you people for realising that this isn't meant to ultimately have one discipline claim dominance over the other. I wanted people who knew what they were talking about, to give their opinions that's all. I want everyone to know I am seriously considering the two on every level, and I just...

well i do agree with you. but this was the point of this thread. Dont take offense to it, in here forgive it. i just want to see some creative opinions. Although I didn't include 'Mathematician' (Physicist and Engineers are essentially Mathematicians). Props to "pure" Mathematicians...

Hmmm you said it was a small dog, just take it back. Hurting it solves nothing, though do make aggressive gestures and sounds to make sure he never does it again. If the small dog in question was a genetically enhanced fox terrier, just start with the onsies again and forget about my secret...

wow, cool. Well, i haven't gotten too technical, (cause i can't, haha) but i have done it with my phone which is on a TDMA network. But, i would piss a friend off who left his phone ( nokia GSM network) next to his speakers by his bed. When he was trying to sleep I kept calling the phone and...

thank you moonbear, lol. definitely like a pie fight. Only more fun cus there's more physics to this than projectile mechanics! ;) come on people I know people who say science is not fun or cool. I DISAGREE lets have some FUN!

WHOA WHOA WHOA... I never said start a cat fight, i never said get insulting. I said that COULD happen, because OBVIOUSLY some people would misunderstand, and not be able refrain from acting like children. Flinging insults just shows you have nothing intelligent to say to back up an opinion...

(for dekoi, and anyone else who may not have understood the point of this) I am not only referring to Engineering and Physics as majors... I am asking if anyone STUDYING or who are actually IN the fields to post their OPINIONS, on these topics. What you appear to be saying is anyones opinion...

not to be an a-hole, but i am conducting a study here. I want to see some Physicist VS Engineer action. In here we know what an engineer and physicist do, we want to know who's better and why they think that. COME ON PEOPLE! LETS GET THIS STARTED!

[I was doing this all wrong! let me try again...] Only in the secret organisations, where they link certain words to produce new words, which give the instructions to carry out their next task. for exaple, your examlpe, gives the command, to go find a bus. (but the real question is...for...

hey cepheid, thanks a lot, will do. hey future, this is helpful. I am applying to some US schools, so that's definitely reassuring. I think the Canadian system is pretty much the same. thanks again

Engineer Vs Physicist (DEATHMATCH!) OK...i've seen some friendly comments on the similarities and differences between Engineering and Physics. I would like to hear from people in these fields and studying these fields to get defensive, get personal, but be serious (why not witty and funny...

No since that is just an arbitrary name given the show, and its popularity is independent of its name. Realistically, some people out there do infact love the show, so that just means: NOT everybody loves "everybody loves raymond" If i produced a device which negated the effect of the...
