What do you guys think is so special about a scientist.

They measure things and record data really well. They apply scientific principles and such.

They use lab equipment and usually have a very narrow scope on the things they are working on.

Do you think every scientist gets a nobel or something?

Scientist isn't a thing. It's like artist, a self-designation.

No, its a thing, people have the title "scientist." Its just a job, tho.
