Not an exhaustive list, of course.  `science' should of course
get all the `heavy science' stuff that few people understand.

This brings up the point that `math' is a science, and perhaps
the `heavy' research-oriented math and geometry packages could
also move to science, leaving `math' with math libraries,
spreadsheets, calculators, MathLab stuff, statistical packages,
etc.
