I think that article sucked out some of my brain cells.
I never had any respect for ign.com in the first place, but I think it just reached a negative value.

This reminds me of an article Dr. Guinan copied from Weekly World News (he reads it regularly to find funny stuff to put in his presentations, to break the ice) about some "Blonde Bombshell Is Thinking Man's J-Lo".
There are a couple things wrong with this: One, she basically looks about as convincing as Denise Richards playing a nuclear physicist in "Goldeneye"... It looks like they took a collagen and silicone-enhanced (brunette) Playboy model and photoshopped a lab coat onto her. Remember people, all scientists wear lab coats. No, actually it's button down shirts, and tee shirts. Sometimes we wear tee-shirts advertising our favorite band. For SHAME!
Two, the thinking man's J-Lo is... J-Lo! WE'RE NOT A DIFFERENT BREED OF HUMAN BEING, DAMNIT! We might be less shallow, though I tend to doubt that because I met one grad student who wanted to know if this other (female) grad student thought Paris Hilton was HOTTT. (Answer: Run Away Quickly)
Three, of course, is that here are a lot of pretty scientists, even in fields as lonely as chemistry or physics, and some of them might even have IQs higher than 140. We are not all pencil-necked geeks any more than we're all male. I know, I'm a bad example.
