Thanks Gary. And no question that Professor Galbraith’s powerful eloquence would fit in an English curriculum. Interestingly, the best database and application performance people I recruited during my career at Oracle were degreed in Electrical Engineering as opposed to Computer Science or Information Systems. Most couldn’t write a report or spell their way out of a paper bag (and still can’t) however they had supernatural analytical skills when it came to 0’s and 1’s.
I can certainly relate to the writing skills of engineers. One of my college room mates was a EE. He led the team that created the pacemaker for Medtronics to be implanted with someone in need of an MRI. He finally passed English II the quarter he graduated. He too couldn't write a report or spell worth a lick, but he was brilliant. He has multiple patents from his time at other companies as well.
