OP

Oh, I mean I totally understand where you're coming from. I think partly his unorthodox representation sort of worked for me, though. While I'm using scientific method and all with my work, I'm sure I'd get laughed at by some more traditional scientists.

But seeing him be creative and unusual, but still indispensable to the cause, sort of made it click for me in my head. My work and my training is still needed, even if the more cliquish groups in academia would turn their noses up at me.

Nah, what you're doing is probably more traditional and exciting than what a lot of research scientists do! That was the disconnect for me. Like 20 years after a interdimensional rift opens and extraterrestrial life appears there aren't thousands of miserable grad students sitting on laptops crunching data? There's two guys and a BLACKBOARD? Newt's contribution was really cool and exciting, I just wish they'd found something more plausible for Hermann to do.

you shouldn't talk yourself down either. In my experience, academia isn't cliquish at all. The most brilliant profs I've met are more impressed by good ideas and original thinking than any amount of pedigree. And I'm applied science - the pure scientists are generally cooler. Excitement is what it's all about!

OP

Hahaha oh god thank you, this made me laugh and feel good. I kind of know what you mean, but I'm also sort of there with Newt and Hermann and their appalling lack of resources. While my projects deal with analyzing crises and making recommendations to the gov entities, there's less than a dozen people altogether working on these projects.

Dude, fist bump for applied science! That's where I'm at, as I'm sort of the human interface for the pure science guys. And so far they haven't been at all dismissive of my skills, and very receptive of me, so I'm pretty encouraged.
