Agree
Wisdom - The ability to appropriately apply knowledge in specific situations

That said, some of the brightest people I know are MD’s
Able to modify paradigms with rapidly shifting and very incomplete databases,
with catastrophic consequences always possible...

And I live in a town full of Nuclear Physicists and Engineering types

Don't mind me, I've just been on call too much lately and am grumpy
