A quick one before bed

Via my big bro who sent me this, but I thought it's worth posting full here.

All credit goes to Dynamics of Cats and its posters.

Highlighting my favourite ones:
1. Electromagnetism is Snape.
You must master E&M, but so many have irrational fear or hatred of it.
It leads to deep unification and glimpses of fundamental symmetries, and is strangely beautiful yet powerful.

7. Cosmology is Luna.
Ignored and mocked for so long, comes into its own as the other fields have matured.
Interesting, but a magnet for whacky ideas of all kind, but, hey you never know if maybe some of these crazy notions are really the way things are...

8. String theory is Hermione.
Beautiful, powerful, the signpost for future directions.
Tries to encompass all classical and quantum phenomena, and to develop and master all the most powerful techniques.
May contain all the other fields within it.
But, curiously directionless without classical direction, needs external input to be prodded into applying itself to real world issues.

Personally I always identified most with Hermione (bookish, bossy, activist type :P), but the descriptions I find myself most like Luna/Cosmology.

I think that i tend to identify with bits of different characters in HP, i don't know that one in particular stands out. Though i guess it's really that i emphasize with their circumstances rather than the characters themselves. But i don't really see myself in Ginny in general (other than being fire-y) - i meant purely within the descriptions offered in the link =).

Aw Remus & Tonks <3 *sniff*.
