Funny you should bring the subject up, as I'm giving very serious consideration to a career change. Software just isn't the challenge it use to be. If I could make a living at building tank models, I'd do it, but the research is just as fascinating. I'm thinking of goint back to school for a history degree (probably have to go whole-hog and shoot for a PhD) and see where that leads.
