I had a long hard think on changing my career and decided that if I did, it'd be to teach history at the college level. I know myself, though. There's no way I could handle the accreditation necessary for the field. I have passion for history, but not homework. It's a shame. I think I could hook one student per semester on the excitement of learning history.

I live in the tech world quite naturally, where my being self-taught isn't a barrier. It's a living. I enjoy it. But it'd be cool to have done the history plan.
