That's the truth. I try to get to know as many people in my field as I can. Networking (not computers) is the best way to get somewhere. A friend of mine is just about to start working at Lexis-Nexis (huge company). So that'll make 2 people I know there. I may try for them once I figure out what I want to do.

I'm in the computer field because its what I know how to do. And I'm pretty good at it. I haven't explored other areas.
