Interdisziplinarität im wissenschaftlichen Rechnen

Sorry - alle Sottisen nur in Deutsch!

Eine wissenschaftliche Groteske in einem Auftritt (Uraufführung in München am 16.1.1997)

Sprach der Limnologe zum Informatiker: "Also, ich empfehle Ihnen dringend, einen Limnologen einzustellen. Meiner Erfahrung nach können sich Limnologen blitzschnell das erforderliche Wissen aus Mathematik und Informatik aneignen, wohingegen andersherum Mathematiker und Informatiker über Jahre hinweg große Probleme haben, sich in die Biologie und Limnologie einzuarbeiten, weil ihnen einfach das Prozessverständnis fehlt."

War der Informatiker sprachlos.
