For those posters/lurkers who were smart enough to not get a degree in the physical sciences...

Huh? I thought it was the squishy sciences that didn't have an intelligence requirement...

(grin)

Actually, I should have attached a sarcasm/humor label to my comment.
Some days I am amazed by the tsunami of cash given to some folks who couldn't
solve a simple equation in algebra...and am then stunned by some of the comparatively
slim salaries in some of the real sciences.
Yes, I'm for the free market...and I suppose this is just part of the deal!
Being in the sciences is a good career, especially if you enjoy the search for objective truth.
But generally, it's not the field for "going for the gold".
