Professor Frink
Appearance
Professor John Frink is Springfield's local mad scientist. He appears to be a slight parody of Jerry Lewis' character, the nutty professor. He has a trademark mannerism of using nonsense words when excited (and he's always excited).
In a flashback we see him lecturing at the Springfield Heights Institute of Technology, demonstrating the Frinkiac supercomputer and predicting that in the future, computers will be immensely larger, more powerful and tremendously expensive that only the 5? richest kings of Europe will own them.
