Another good group of points.  Obviously, someone in my (our) career field
needs to consider more than just a programming language.  Espcialyy for
those of us with family and personal interests (music, in my case), we
need to live were the world in compatible with our lives.

However, some of that comes with our profession as well.  Here in Silly
Valley, it's a cookie jar for C++/Java folks (it ain't so bad for Ada
people either, truth be told).  I doubt I'd have nearly as much success in
Minot North Dakota.  As others have (correctly) pointed out to me, there
IS a robust niche market and there's one here under my nose in San Jose.

Thanx,
