POLL: How many students are active here (instead of writing up?!)

Nice one Grorgy. Sadly, I think the cartoonist has really summed things up in my case :-[

Since I was only allowed two, I chose Masters & PhD. Like Carol, I too believe in life long learning, though my experiences with Universities has made me very anti-school in some ways. On the flip side, my company pays for any degrees or classes that could be applied to the company, so I have an IT degree, MBA, and am looking at maybe a Masters in Network Administration or a Business Doctorate. Any suggestions out there?
I am also continuing my studies in German language and culture as well as a few other things (Master Electrician, Military Studies, Java/Mono & C#/.Net Web Programming, Linux Administration). I even studied Electrical Engineering for a time, but couldn't finish the tests in the time allotted, so I gave it up rather than failing out. I have most of the math and foundation material still in this noggin though, so I suppose the time was useful for something. I have found so many things fascinating, that I find I can not stay focused on any of them for too long. I end up trying to learn a subject intensely for a while, then put it down for another subject. I keep this up until I get back to the original subject. I guess that is why Java is on my list still, more than any other reason.

What do you mean, in your case?
Armando:
I did my M.A. thesis in theater at UQAM (University of Quebec in Montreal) in 2005. Am now enrolled in the “études et pratiques des arts” Ph.D. program... at UQAM, still... That was probably a mistake.

Well... didn't want to generalise and paint all PhD students with the same brush that I would apply to myself :D
