I guess there are no "egskyoossez" when it comes to math, physics and science.

that might be why there seem to be more conservatives in the hard sciences and more leftists in the soft disciplines.
in math and physics, mechanics, ballistics, etc... there is what works or what does not, a right answer and wrong answers, hard standards above contestation.
In the soft disciplines, like "english lit" et omnia generis alia, right and wrong are debatable qualities rather than indisputable measurable quantities.
