That's a good start to be a crack pot.
It is unfortunate how scientists are represented in my view they don't deserve such.
Although TV shows like CSI have done wonders for presenting a better image.

How are scientists represented and in which medium?
My issue with the general population of scientists is their abandonment of fundamental research and risk taking whilst embracing the short term corporate demands for trivial efficiency gains and profit margins.
The bulk of the world's scientists have essentially become corporate puppets straight-jacketed to deranged corporate demands. There are exceptions, but usually these rogue scientists are hidden in Academia or even within the large corporate Goliathical structures.
Considering that there are over 18 million scientists and engineers in the USA alone, and that China has a conveyor belt of 600,000 scientists & 1 million Engineering graduates every year, the global environment for vibrant and genuine R&D that isnt politically and corporately contaminated is pathetically paltry.
Most Scientists should apologise before accepting their degree at graduation and when accepting their first puppet job
