Ben, I always thought you had a law degree. Not sure where that came from. I'm looking to make a change, too. Usually I move every three to five years, and I'm approaching that limit...

And NO SIR, no such discussion of our secret spy satellites being conducted here....sir.

I went with lawyer because is was my last degree earned and because I actually still practice some. I also am an economist (gotta love the dismal science) and do tech support because computers are my hobby and I am not afraid to mess with the settings to see what happens. I have so far show enough wisdom to ask for help before I have royally screwed anything up. Oh yeah, I work for a publishing company.
I guess that adds up to jack-of-all-trades. A nice cascade skill for those of you who played Traveller back in the ‘70's and 80's.
