I thought I should clarify my reference to Snow in my last message.  As both
scientist and novelist, he noted with great concern that the two cultures
are highly insular, each viewing the other with varying degrees of disgust,
distrust, and ... what else rhymes with "ust"?  We could pursue details of
his views if others are interested.

In Science and Human Values (another cheapo paperback--worth buying) by
J. Bronowski, there is a very strong argument for the idea that the acts
of creation by artists and scientists are similar.

I hope C.G. will be viewed by artists and scientists as one of those fields
in which the two can rightfully and profitably come together.
