is an oxymoron. That's probably why a lot of politicians act like morons.

The sad thing is, how many people buy into what the politicians say, are single issue voters, etc. There truly is a science to politics, and quite frankly, while politicians do some inane things, it is actually the voting masses that act (and sadly, vote) like morons.

I had a quick skim of the first few pages - looked like Fermi Estimates, if so these have a long and noble history in physics.
