What Be Your Nerd Type? Your Result: Science/Math Nerd (Absolute Insane Laughter as you pour toxic chemicals into a foaming tub of death!) Well, maybe you aren't this extreme, but you're in league with the crazy scientists/mathmeticians of today. Very few people have the talent of math and science is something takes a lot of brains as well. Thank whosever God you worship, or don't worship, so thank no deity whatsoever in your case, for you people! Most of us would have died off without your help.

I cracked open my copy of The Visual Display of Quantitative Information tonight,absolutely awe inspiring, with page upon page of staggeringly effective charts.

Yes, I'm getting excited about time-series charts. I'm a geek.

Charts include this:

The horizontal lines are French train stations, the distance between them is how far they are on the rail line. The vertical lines represent hours. The diagonal lines represent train trips

Or this classic

Showing the path Napoleon's army took on its invasion of Russia, along with major battles, the size of the army, how many soldiers died in the terrible invasion, and the temperature as General Winter went to work.

20 more reasons to love Futurama

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 22:06:59 GMT

You Are Dr. Bunsen Honeydew

You take the title "mad scientist" to the extreme -with very scary things coming out of your lab.
And you've invented some pretty cool things, from a banana sharpener to a robot politician.
But while you're busy turning gold into cottage cheese, you need to watch out for poor little Beaker!
"Oh, that's very naughty, Beaker! Now you eat these paper clips this minute."

Your Score: Impulsive Leela

You scored 0Morality, 40 Intelligence, 0 Empathyand 40 Determination!

Watch out universe! The "What If" machine professed your coming and low mortals here you are in full green striped boots. There are parts of you to love more and many to love a little less. Come on, you killed your favorite pet. You slept with Fry. You refused to bribe Bender. You were once a great captain with basic needed that were never met and everyone loved you that way. Now, well, lifes a party, but most of the people at yours died in those few flickering light incidents.
