Just that really!

There is quite a lot of theoretical stuff on the board.

Not in a theoretical subject at all though.

I was for a while (6 years lecturing) - now research scientist in R&D outfit for large organisation. Quite glad to have got out of higher ed when I did - I don't like the way universities have gone in the 15 years or so since I left. I got on very well with most of my students, but I had a take-no-prisoners attitude to sloppy thinking and indiscipline (I used to kick students out of lectures if they talked) which I don't think would go down well these days.

And that leads to my second question. There seem to be lots of Americans too.
