HAHA, this is funny!

Click here to see a Dilbert Cartoon

I think this cartoon speaks to the fact that engineers and scientists must be good at communicating to everybody. However, I embraced math and science because it was so far from English class. For me, what I didn't like about English class was grammar exercises, (I'll freakin' scream if you try to make me identify the predicate clauses in a sentence). I also was irritated that there was a 'right' answer as the interpretation of the underlying meanings within literature. But now that I'm older, I have realized the importance of communication. And some part of me thinks I may be better at communication, reading, and writing if I had taken the harder English classes in high school.
