I guess I'm another kind of the oddball here.
Although I wasnt always...
I was a sys admin at Brandeis University outside Boston for about 5 years, but about 2 years ago, I got tired of sitting behind a desk.
So now I'm a "Marine Systems Engineer" (boat builder), in Portland, Maine.
I check the board here once in the morning on the way out the door, and then again when I get home.
Keeps me current with the goings on, although I'm woefully behind on my Hijack updates. Sorry Mark.

Just for fun heres a pic of the head (toilet/bathroom for you landlubbers) on an Open 60 Class sloop that completed the last Around Alone, and is competing in the upcoming Vendee Globe around the world singlehand race.
Notice the carbon fiber whoopee bar.
