After taking some online quizzes tonight that said I am an Interpersonal Thinker, I have a female brain, and I make a lousy superhero*, I chased down a story about Gaak, a rogue robot that escaped from his enclosure.
And discovered Gaak's creator, Noel Sharkey, a multi-disciplinary Professor who dropped out of school at 15, dropped acid, and played in rock bands before pursuing a successful academic career. (Okay, so I didn't drop out of school at 15, but I did wag a few days and go to the beach). Oh, and he's on his third marriage!
Here is Noel's homepage at the University of Sheffield, and here is a neat article about him by the American Society for Engineering Education.
*Please note, being a lousy superhero has little to do with having a female brain, but more to do with my lack of motivation to save the world right now.
