My wife works at a patent law firm that specializes in bio-sciences and unique molecular combinations. One of the partners has a Ph.D in a science and is also a patent attorney, the spouse is a deptartment head of a science department at the local state university. Their children ... well, lets just say, they are lacking in the IQ dept.
