It takes a great scientist to know the limits of science. Dick Feynman had the instincts of an EE matched with the ingenuity of a Willie Sutton, and an intuitive grasp of mathematics. A kind of magus, you know. Any, in his little book, “Surely you are joking, he talks about trying to explain modern physics to his Dad—a really smart guy. Try as he would, he could not. So I am not sure that these liberal arts types will ever “get” what needs to be before they can build their fairy castles in the air.
