They Did It During The Great Depression, They Did It Without Computers, They Did It Without AutoCad

[Confusious]

117. Helping you understand in a post is impossible

If I could, I would be the greatest teacher in the world.

I would suggest you take some science and math classes at your local community college if you really want to. It will add greatly to your appreciation.

I would also expect that you don't really care, since you seem to think any sort of understanding along that line "Grounds that sucker at all costs."

"There's an appropriate time and place for both pure science and creative imagination"

You can look at it one way, I can look at it another. When the original OP states with snark " And they didn't use computers or autocad," it seems appropriate to me. Pumping up one set of people and insulting another is extremly lame attempt at a "flight of imagination."

Oh, I'm not the one using words such as "pedant's tools" and "eruditon" to try and hide the attempt at insulting someone. Just M"H"O.

(If it was really humble, you probably wouldn't give it unless asked, would you?)
