Answer #1: I'm a news junkie. I actually started reading the Post
online (along with the Times, the two Chicago papers, CNN, the four
Toronto papers, etc.) regularly while living in Columbus. The Post is
pretty much my favourite--and the chats had a lot to do with it. I
found the Hax chat first, and then discovered Gene's chat, which led me
to his column, etc.
Answer #2: What do I do with a degree in medieval history? Hang it on
the wall :-) When I finished my PhD in 1999, I spent maybe 6 months
checking out the academic job market before deciding "You know, I need
to get a decent job now, not spend five years finding it (only to find
it in Montana)." I'm now a project manager. (I enjoy telling people the
first project I managed was my doctoral dissertation. It's completely
true :-)
