  I’m sure my theory of real life taking ideas from fantasy shows and games is false. But it’s interesting to think that maybe some of these great innovations and inventions came from popular culture. It would be ironic is all that I’m saying. Pop culture already dictates most of our boring lives with gossip and juvenile indulgences publicized through magazines and entertainment shows; we don’t exactly need it leaking into engineering.

  Interesting point. Our methods are a direct application of fluid flow analysis. Civil or chemical engineering, though, the world would be a lot safer if engineering principles were more fully integrated into out thinking and decision processes. The standards are transparent. And engineers would get more credit for the hard work that goes into being qualified.
