Those items sound exactly like the recommendations that Robert Heinlein's fictional character "Lazarus Long" suggested in his sci-fi novels. Of course he was talking about colonizing new planets, but still the same skill set is required................ ========================================================================= A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyse a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. — Robert Heinlein, [Lazarus Long] Time Enough for Love
