Just a Gwai Lo

Sacha, on Phillip Greenspun's article on women in science (which I linked to earlier in the week): “There are some things about this article which are very true and some which are exaggerated. If you're getting into science and are interested in money, you should really be looking for some sort of position in the private sector. The problem is that most of the well paying positions require a PhD, which tends to consume too much of your mature mental growth years (i.e. 20-30 years of age) which makes it very biologically expensive to obtain.”
