Despite all that, I would totally give Adam Savage from Mythbusters my vote all over again. There's something about his limitless, boyish enthusiasm for science that gets me every time. And his nerd cred is pretty obvious, having one of the nerdiest jobs on tv. I also wouldn't be opposed to a combined Jamie Hyneman/Adam Savage ticket. Maybe together they could pull out a win.<BR/><BR/>I must say that I'd support Patrick Stewart and Eddie Izzard, too.Coasterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05635348884973553517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863570.post-9604659785232672592008-05-09T23:34:00.000-05:002008-05-09T23:34:00.000-05:00I'm going to have to third the recommendation for ...I'm going to have to third the recommendation for Eddie Izzard.

Numbers may not be a great show, but he's a good, and definitely nerd-love, character.
