In Reply to: I take offense at the mad scientist stereotype. posted by TAFKA Steve on February 19, 2002 at 17:27:18:
in reference to the character of Dr. Carrington, the chief scientist
in "The Thing"-1951. Carrington was portrayed as being rational in
the extreme, thus lapsing into irrationality by becoming obsessive
in his view on how to confront and deal with the alien. Of course,
his views and actions were countered by the more balanced and pragmatic ones of the Captain. Nevertheless, Carrington
suffered a broken arm (it could have been fatal) by the alien, mistakenly
thinking that he could have rational discourse with it. - AH
