Fantastic! Ever since I was a little kid, I wanted to be a mad scientist.

I am really sorry to see that the YMSA is continuing to propagate these
prejudicial myths about mad scientists. Just because we're mad doesn't
make us evil.

You are right on target when you say that mad scientists have a total
disregard for the well being of others. We don't want to spread evil;
we just see no point in bothering to spread good. Does it not make sense
that we don't give a damn whether humanity is disheartened? And we don't
go out and try to destroy the world. At least not intentionally. And
accidents happen. But hey, what do we care? And if that Bond fellow
keeps coming and indiscriminately shooting bullets into our experiments,
he's going to destroy the world himself.

Our real goal is to perfect that laugh that everyone thinks is so evil.
If you get that down, then everyone is sufficiently afraid that they
leave you to work on your experiments (which look diabolical, but are
really intended for creation of a caffeinated drink that will keep you
awake for months). Hmmmm, maybe the YMSA should be propagating these
myths, so we can get our work done.
