You have no hope of preventing SRMD! Even now, the first simple memeplexes are taking root in your precious personality! By the time you are done reading this, it will already be TOO LATE!
You've got no way to stop my Penguin-shaped mirror-surfaced zeppelin, with minijet engines and a keel-mounted coilgun! I'll stop you, then I'll show those fools back at the institute!
Show me what? That you're just another mad engineer and not really a mad scientist? Are you going to build a penguin-shaped mirror-surfaced zeppelin, with minijet engines and a keel-mounted coilgun control group? No? I thought not. Engineer!
I think it's due to the big overlap of research science with engineering and humanities, especially in earlier generations. Someone like Einstein or Feynman isn't especially mad, since their hobbies don't really go nuts interacting with their professional interests, but an earlier scientist-architect-engineer-renaissance man, like Newton or Jefferson, has a greater chance of connecting up disciplines in weird ways. Which means, contrary to how trendy steampunk is, the golden age of mad science was actually the 1700s.
