I attempted to compile a list of scientists and engineers serving in Congress (without very stringent standards): Vernon Ehlers, Rush Holt, John Olver, Brian Baird, Bill Foster, Ron Paul, Jerry McNerney, Dan Lipinski, Nancy Boyda... Any additions are appreciated.

Isn't Nancy Pelossi an expert on Caving? Sorry, but I could not resist dunking the layup you gave me. However, PERHAPS, Bill Foster getting elected will help her get some bal.. I mean, stiffen her spine and stand up to Bush and the Rethuglicans about the FISA bill and Telecomm Immunity.
