    Default I'm seriously infatuated.

    go to Youtube,

    put in "Fat Man and Circuit Girl."

    Jeri Ellsworth.

    Wow.

    I'm bewitched, bothered, and bewildered and bemused. I've found my dream date. I worked with a lot of very smart ladies with PhDs. They have a serious, focused attitude about their work. Very few of them ever would just go into a shop and play with high energy materials for the heck of it.

    But this lady has hands on skills that just don't quit and can communicate. She copycats a lot of already done stuff, but there is some origionality there, too. I'll go take a cold shower now...

    What I'm trying to say is ladies who do professional level hardware and talk about it are very rare...

    I bet she gets 30 email proposals a day from geeks like me.....


    See how many you recognize yourself in this story.

    I always remembered it as Ella.

    either way, remind me never to introduce you to my girlfriend...

    Yep - she kind of took on the "mom frump" appearance.

    Still, I have fond memories of watching her literally setting the mesquite on fire while she caressed the trigger of the Dillon minigun.

    Sweet........

    ... why do you think Mythbusters recruited Jeri for the new season? Gentlemen, start your DVR's!

    Not as rare as you might think.

    Although not a hardware engineer, I do find Dr Alice Roberts MB BCh BSc ILTM Phd, to be a rather intriguing mix of extreme cuteness and intelligence.
