   [Thanks for migrating the discussion to CHAT. If the

   Regarding cushy..  I defined what I meant by cushy (meaning,     
   work with no concern of lack of wages).  Then you defined it     
   differenty (something fun to do).  I understand your     
   explanations, but you changed the basis of the discussion of     
   what cushy was initially.  ;)   
      
      
    CP> Doing things I like is cushy.   
      
   Exactly.

   Those elements are usually the concerns of an administrator or     
   project coordinator - and not the concern of someone scraping     
   a petri dish, cleaning a test tube, or peering through a     
   telescope.   
      
      
    CP> But as I've said, your idea of a cushy job and mine   
    CP> aren't the same.   
      
   Understood.  So, the original discussion is something else     
   now. I have made my point. I can move on. Besides, I have a     
   *lot* of work to do - most certainly more than what a     
   researcher needs to worry about.  And.. I cannot be sure how     
   much money I'll have for groceries - very much different than     
   what a researcher has concern for.  ;)
