I want to be a Fungineer!

I am not even sure I want to be a true scientist I just want to make cool things.  I want to be a fungineer.  Someone that develops ideas for others to actually make reality.  I want to write stories about the future and inspire minds to make those science fictional realities, fact.  I want to follow in the tradition of Asimov and Wells... inspire like Star Trek and Star Wars, and most importantly never stop believing that mankind has a future in the stars.

Failing that, we have Futurama.
