My problem with him that he doesn't think like a scientist.
Ah. I'm working on a PhD in Micro at the moment... so yeah, I can see that. First of all, the writers for this series probably know Jack shit about how scientists think, so long as the science they write sounds remotely plausible.
But I've known people who are great human beings and absymal scientists... I've also known brilliant minds who can't think their ways out of paper sacks without hand-holding.
I can't guarantee that under threat of constant death by life-sucking vampire aliens from outer space I'd think like a scientist either, even if I'm being trained for it. :) Which I am. /devils-advocating all over you
Could you imagine the House/McKay snarkfights? It would be hilarious, especially if Rodney decided to hypochondriac all over House.
