Hey, Don,

Back when we all congratulated you on getting your Master's, you told us 
you had been counting on a job but then got rejected.  Now it seems 
you've got another one.  Congratulations on that, and what is your 
impression of the job market for people who major in geology and 
mineralogy?  Did you find lots of possibilities?  My niece (I mentioned 
her once a few years ago when she accidentally turned a pyrite ball into 
a lot of micros) is now a freshman in college (at Washington State U, 
just across the border from you in Idaho) and she's thinking about a 
geology major (or Chinese studies). 

Aloha, Kitty
