>I guess that would make me a hybrid. My degree is Chemical Engineering with heavy course work in CS as well. Of course that was in the days before PCs but just after punch cards. I was fortunate that Texas A&M had just started letting us use terminals the year I started taking the courses. I had courses in Fortran and Basic. I kind of figured I had some talent for programming while watching my wife-to-be sit at a terminal trying to hammer out a cobol program and telling her every mistake she was making along the way. While she was grateful, she still became most annoyed.
Once, but only once, I've lost my temper and yelled at someone while I was writing a program. It was at a fellow programmer, who stood more than an hour behind my shoulder and silently watched what I was doing. Probable cause is that I was writing Cobol at the time.
