    As my dad says, "Biology is a special case of Chemistry and Chemistry is a special case of Physics, so study Physics — and anyone who doesn't study Physics (with calculus, of course) isn't a human being."

    Sort of reminds me of "Mandelbrot Set," by Jonathan Coulton:

    Fires up iTunes, begins playing said song

    Take a point called Z in the complex plane
    Let Z1 be Z squared plus C
    And Z2 is Z1 squared plus C
    And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on
    If the series of Z’s should always stay
    Close to Z and never trend away
    That point is in the Mandelbrot Set

    Mandelbrot Set you’re a Rorschach Test on fire
    You’re a day-glo pterodactyl
    You’re a heart-shaped box of springs and wire
    You’re one ****** ******* fractal
    And you’re just in time to save the day
    Sweeping all our fears away
    You can change the world in a tiny way

    All that glitters is not gold.

    But at least it contains free electrons.
