Dr. Michio Kaku, professor of theoretical physics at the City College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Host his own show on the science channel.

I think he is probably ENTP or INTP.

he's quite charismatic and spends a lot of time in his lectures making jokes

In a way, he kind of reminds me of Carl Sagan and Bill Nye, being a popularizer of science.

Same (ENTP).. I think he's cooler than Sagan and Nye at what he does too.. even though they're more well known.

Michio Kaku's hero is INTP 5w4 Albert Einstein so he is probably the same type.

ESTP (which is unusual, I'll admit...though it does make sense since he's a talented popularizer and a likeable, outgoing personality.)

Don't even start, either, you dunces. I know it's impossible in the little world of typology forums for anybody doing anything science or philosophy related (or really anything important or visible other than the odd actor here and there) as a profession to be typed as S. It's a failure of your minds that you'll hopefully all get over one day.

I wonder if Kaku ever wears a wifebeater.

There are a bunch (a lot that I can't think of off the top of my head.) Bertrand Russell, for instance, is I/ENTP. Hannah Arendt, INFP. Kurt Gödel, INTP. Chomsky, INTP. Stephen Hawking, INTP.

There are a ton more I'm not remembering right now, but that's a start. There are even a lot of N actors, though they (and any other type, actually) are drowned out by the sheer preponderance of ESFJs.

Anyway, I resent that I'm being asked to "prove" that I'm not favoring S over N, especially when the de-facto typing of anyone famous (except certain of the most vapid actors) and certainly anyone intellectual is N.

You bring up a very good point in the bolded and you know have me questioning my own type! I still don't know how you can tell who is intuitive and who isn't.
