How interesting a thesis! When I attended university in the’60s, each discipline jealously guarded its boundaries from incursions by other fields of thought and practice. One elected a “major” field of study and some sort of useful or complementary “minor” field of interest. Ever curious about overlaps, I graduated with two majors and eight minors. I’m guessing I am not so unique in insisting upon “looking under the hood” of a bunch of career vehicles—and still driving one off the lot in a timely and responsible manner. Good job, Georgia!!!

I love this! My father was a Nebraska farmer, and he often said, "I'm Jack of trades, master of none!" and he was one of the wisest people I have ever known! Many of the principles which have been the guiding light for the company I founded, now called Productive Environment Institute, were based on lessons learned from following him around the farm!
