—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Sprüche in Prosa (Proverbs in Prose), 1819

Stop building things that EXPLODE!

Fenspace's usual abbreviation for "Mad Scientist", inspired by Mystery Science Theater 3000. While most people have a Blue Hair Day once or twice in their lives, Mads have metaphorical Blue Hair Days on a regular basis.

The Mads range from "slightly loopy" (Benjamin Rhodes, Kohran Li, A.C. Peters, etc.) to "full-out Hammer-Film-star candidates" (The Professor, Dr. Asmodeus Grey, etc.). Pray they're never all in the same place at the same time.

Foglio-Fen Mads are usually called Sparks, although not everyone who calls him- or herself a Spark is a Mad.
