   Heh heh. As a "lowly" programmer I used knowledge from my   
   schooling: hearing science and speech production, electrical   
   engineering, physics, and mathematics.   
      
   Not to mention writing skills and tenacity from all that schoolwork.   
      
   As an aside, I don't consider *any* job to be *lowly*. Not even   
   "SQL jockey" :-).
