Quote:I find it rude when you make judgements about my life decisions when all you know about me is that if it weren't for the economy I may have chosen a life as a somewhat discontented chemist.Sorry. Did not mean to be rude. My comment was more directed to law as a career, and the discontent I have observed among its practicioners over the last 40+ years. It is also my observation that most people go to law school, not because of any burning desire to be a lawyer, but because they cannot think of anything else they want to do. Your post sounded like you were among those. Best wishes in whatever you decide to do, however.
In this case it seems to be in fun - thus the emoticon - so I don't mind. The Ph.D. is from Berkeley on lanthanide chemistry.
