I have been watching and sometimes posting in this group for over 2 years
now, and after watching the sky at night star party episode (excellent
piece of tv), i was thinking...

What do you guys do for a living, i mean, is it anything to do with
astronomy or completely different?

For people like Pete Lawrence, are you just a normal working man then
come home to take part in your wonderful hobby?

Its will be quiet interesting to see the vast amount of people there are
that take part actively in astronomy from all walks of life.

Personnally, i have worked in retail (safeway, B&Q and a manufacturing
company that makes resin's and hardeners), but ot currently unemployed
looking for work. Hopefully something scientific will come up!

I'm deeply scared by how many of us are in computers. Deeply scared.

BTW I'm an IT manager in a bank. So at least I'm not in computers...

Hi Stuart

astronomy or completely different?

Star watching! I'm a cinema projectionist. Once I get the film going I look
out of the window at the real stars and hope it's still clear when I get
home after 11pm.

I was originally a cell biologist (PhD in an obscure corner of cancer
research) and now I evaluate, install and run supercomputing systems for
the human genome project and related research.

I was a manufacturer before I retired - you know, sawing and drilling
things and then screwing them up - whoops - screwing them together and
selling them. I'm sure I don't even know what a computer is.

I think that's self-selecting because this is Usenet.

Don't you kid yourself. :-)
