I wish i'd gone down the science route but i ended up joining the airforce as an Electrical engineer, finished after 12 years and now working on the railway.
So i guess my interest in all things science stems from my background in engineering.

I'm always pondering ways of generating electricity, i thought of something the other day basically anywhere where there is movement we could generate electricity, so i thought why not lay cables in motorways and make it a requirement to have magnets underneath cars to induce into those cables.

Whether that is feasible is another question.
