I, on the other hand, am a guy who just likes to talk about stuff he has no training in. Training is over-rated.

I was even at Earth Day 1992
I was only there for the speeches because two hippie chicks we met that night before came and woke a buddy and myself up to go.
The ugly one wanted me
and I had to listen to Jesse Jackson speak
So imagine being hung over, tired, eating dry fruit loops out of a empty beer stein listening to Jesse Jackson speak on subject matter he has no idea about while an unattractive hippie chick hits on you. By this point I already tried to point out to a male earth day hippie that no, nuclear power does NOT cause CO2 build up in the atmosphere (yes they even had a booth to claim that nuclear power caused global warming) That was my day. It was so surreal it was worth it as a memory
Ah college.
I went on to do some post graduate work, but finally decided they were all nuts and went on to dental school instead. Since I had to have all the basic biology requirements for my ecology degree and even worked in a genetics lab for a couple of years its not a stretch to get into dental school from there.

Actually I think Geology would have a better grasp than either of them if you had to pick a 'best to analyze' as a solo degree, but its too big a question for just one discipline to look at all potentials, but thanks for your concern
