For decades, I had heard people talk about how hard and awful and boring it was; organic chemistry turned out to be one my favorite classes, ever - actually easier and more interesting than general or physical chemistry.

It was the same for me but in statistics, differential equations and linear algebra. I actually liked them so much I made math my minor.

Well, that kinda goes back to my post about not necessarily wanting to know if they had Ph. D. level knowledge in any specific subject, but wanting to know how they think about sciences in general, and how that would affect their decision-making.

A president who "prefers" altered and redacted EPA semi-annual reports, and altered and redacted EPA OIG semi-annual reports is a dangerous thing.

Precisely, DC. I was being facetious but we're on the same page here.

yes and no. its important, but the majority of the candidates have no clue about science so they would just be talking out of their asses (like usual)
