Meteorologists

First of all, I'm pretty sure after watching the weather at least twice a week for over 20 years I'm qualified to forecast the weather. Weather forecasts are weird anyway, but that's another review altogether. Meteorologists apparently go to school where they mostly learn how to lie, state the blatantly obvious and pretend like they know what Mother Nature plans to do. But usually Mother Nature (that lady, always the smartass) says screw you pal/gal and decides there isn't going to be a thunderstorm after all. Then, we all yell at the weatherperson because they were wrong...again. And the cycle repeats itself.

Edward Lorenz was a meteorologist, and using meteorology he discovered the Lorenz attractor and made an important contribution to the mathematical formalization of chaos theory.

Of course, there have got to be thousands of other meteorologists who have done nothing of the sort. I'd bet being a recognizable weatherman could get you laid any night of the week, though.

Oh yeah, so okay, there are exceptions to the rule. But someone name one more!
