Yeah. That's why *I* got into engineering - to meet girls! (I'm wondering
when that starts to happen? Is there a scheduled milestone for it? :-)

I recall this cartoon that I think was originated by Kliban but maybe was
redone by Sergio Argones in Mad Magazine. It depicts this slick looking guy
in a double breasted suit surrounded by beautiful women admiring him as he's
walking down the street. This cop is kicking this old blind guy into the
street and yelling at him: "Out of the way you swine! An *Engineer* is
coming!" (Or insert your profession as desired. Maybe I need a version that
says "Ada Programmer".) I wish I could find a copy of it in .JPG format. It
would make good wallpaper - symbolizing the high level of respect given to
those of us in the engineering professions. :-)
