Why do we celebrate

scientist popularizes like Feynman, Neil Degrasse Tyson, Carl Sagan

they are smart people, and i understand the need for populizers...but we should be celebrating real scientists

Try Sir Henry Cavendish.

My personal science hero.

"A man so painfully shy the only known picture of him was sketched by a college without his knowing."

Absolutely dwarfs Tezla.

>Feynman
fuck your mother you degerenate nigger. He's the most real scientist and you dare to put him on equal footing as Grease Tyson? Fuck you, you probably have an arts degree

Feynman was a self-aware con-man who used his mathematical sleight-of-hand skills to bamboozle physicists and win himself prizes and acclaim.

You don't even understand what he's saying in what you just posted do you? You just saw some words you recognized and seized on them.

Who do you mean by "we?" It is pretty obvious that the populace is going to know more about the popularizers than the guys they are popularizing -- otherwise, we'd not need popularizers.

But in the end, I don't give a rat's ass WHO gets celebrated, that does not matter as much as hopefully more people getting some grasp of where science is now and what we have learned using it as a tool.

How would he not notice a whole college sketching him?
