Where did Dr. Science come from?
Dr. Science first arrived on the science scene in 1985. Rumor has it that he grew up in the vast cornfields of Iowa but details on this and other questions of origin are sketchy.
Dr. Science, is America's foremost authoritarian on the world around us. Or at least the world around him. "There is a thin line between ignorance and arrogance," he says, "and only I have managed to erase that line."
How does Dr. Science know the secrets of the universe? He has a Masters Degree ... in Science!
So herewith............ the wit and whiz-dumb of Dr. Science as once heard on NPR Radio.
