    English philosopher Herbert Spencer said, "The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools."

    the ignorance of Ph.D.s is still ignorance and high-IQ groupthink is still groupthink, which is the antithesis of real thinking.

    Here's how you can do it:
    -Go to the library and find a fluorescent light fixture you want to use.
    -Right click on the library object and copy it, then paste it in your user library.
    -Open the object you copied, and using the rotate tool at the bottom left of the dialogue box, rotate it on the "X" axis 90 degrees.
    -Before you close out the dialogue box, do two more things: on the "2D Block" tab, click on "Generate Block" (this way it will look right in 2D). Lastly, go to the "Options" tab and check the box for "wall mounted" and enter a height in the "height off floor" value. This will force Chief to mount the light on the wall by default.

    Hope this helps!
