Abstract: A French balloonist once floated acoss the English Channel and landed in a field of wheat. He spotted an Englishman and said Excuse me, sir, can you tell me where I am? Certainly, the Englishman said. You are in a basket in a field of wheat. You must be an engineer, said the Frenchman. Amazing, said the Englishman. How did you know? Easy, said the Frenchman. Your information is typical. Totally accurate but absolutely useless. Ten years ago, when the scientific community was essentially concerned with technology, the scientist was too remote a figure for the comment to be funny.
