In the movie Wall Street, Michael Douglas won an Oscar for his portrayal of the rude, larcenous wheeler-dealer Gordon Gekko. Mike's score for treating colleagues with respect was dismal; in fact, out of 1,000 managers rated, he was dead last! His profit contribution was so vast that the CEO promoted him into management.

The good news is that many of these folks manage to extract themselves from what might have otherwise been mind-numbing existences and to fly to dizzying heights of success simply by insisting on being themselves. Our brains are difference engines, trained to find and deal with patterns and their disruption. Thank you!!

In 1966, students arriving at an engineering college were told that they would be obsolete in seven years. That's taking Intel co-founder Gordon Moore's bold prediction (now known as Moore's Law ) that the number of transistors on a chip will double approximately every two years to a far new level.

The Gordon-Howell Report in 1959, funded by the Ford Foundation, criticized the weak scientific foundation of business education, suggesting that professors were more like quacks than serious scholars.

The Times piece was all about the new "War for Talent" in Silicon Valley , a replay of the battle waged more than a decade ago to recruit top-flight young engineers and coders from elite colleges and assorted countercultural pursuits.

Who doesn’t stand in awe of the advances that science and its STEM siblings (technology, engineering, and math) have created to better our world?
