J Logie Baird?

Amazing. Care to share with us what made you think of him? The only info we had was: a Scottish, male, dead, electrical engineer . What was the crucial clue?

Electrical engineer and Scottish. Correct Vince? Just typed both into my browser.

 

[Richie]

Sounds like what I'm into. Thanks Ritchie

My pleasure Jessica , hope you have success.

 

[Vince]

What was the crucial clue?

The description was enough - he invented television! Also I knew that Ritchie knew that.

 

[Vince]

OK, profession.

 

[Richie]

OK, profession.

You like professions.

 

[Richie]

corporate, medical, hospitality, trade?

 

[Grier]

Male or female dominated?
How "old" is the profession?
What degree of physicality is involved in the profession?
Are fine motor skills involved?

 

[Vince]

corporate, medical, hospitality, trade?

None of these, sorry.

Male or female dominated?
How "old" is the profession?
What degree of physicality is involved in the profession?
Are fine motor skills involved?

Traditionally male.
See above.
Low to average.
Sometimes.

 

[Richie]

None of these, sorry.

Then entertainment.
traditionally male. A circus clown, a mime artist.

 

[Richie]

Or is it the arts. A painter or a sculptor.

 

[Grier]

Is the profession still in practice today and how common?

About when was the profession first practiced?
30,000 BC would suffice.

Does the profession often involve traveling?

 

[Vince]

Then entertainment.

Not even slightly, sorry.

Or is it the arts. A painter or a sculptor.

No, but someone very proficient might be described as an "artist".

Profession is probably more common now than historically.
It's referred to in scripture: best I can do.
Yes.

By the way it's far too hot here today... [edit]: 45c. I couldn't walk into this room before 9PM

 

[Grier]

Sounds like a traveling Gypsy, how about a Trader?

A proselytising agent of a Religion?

A War reporter?

45C is scorching hot!

 

[Richie]

A proselytising agent of a Religion?

Reckon you have nailed it Terry. Is still carried out today, the Mormons for instance.

I invited two Mormons in for water and 3 visits to listen to their perspectives. They were very polite and even gave me a copy of their bible which reminded me of The Lord of the Rings by Tolkien. Lovely pictures too.

I'm quite immune to those who Proselytise, just curious. I used to put my religion as "Jedi" on Census forms until they banned it. May the Farce be with you!

I do believe in God tho from mostly a Spinozian (Nature) perspective that encompasses all the Science we understand that keeps the Universe ticking on.

 

[Vince]

A proselytising agent of a Religion?

Not as bad, but sort of on that spectrum?

Not a Gypsy/trader. Not a war reporter.

 

[Richie]

In the scriptures: Many of Jesus' disciples were fishermen.
If wrong a decent clue please

 

[Vince]

If wrong a decent clue please

Reasonable request, and staying biblical.
Book of Exodus - forbidding the profession.
