Not only reading the classics, but things like The Teaching Company, talking to professors and having them send me recordings of their talks, etc., etc. I also talk and interface with other "degreed" individuals and such.My main job description would be Sys Admin for a small company, but I'm also the network admin, webmaster, hardware tech, etc., etc., etc. ... which basically means "It's my fault." No problems though. I like it though and everyone is good to work with. (I discover most of the time that when problems arise it's my bad attitude anyway!) Much of my learning here was also from books and talking to other techs.On the side ... I guess I would be a sort of unofficial "visiting speaker or even a teacher" for a small group of churches and such. There's nothing regular or steady about it all, and I don't ask for payment and such, but every once in a while I'm asked to go somewhere and give a talk or series of talks, they pay for the plane ticket, and I can go and see some old friends. My most recent trip was to Alaska.I am also the official "free local tech support" via phone or such ... which also can keep my "free time" (Hah!) quite busy.</blockquote>
