Hi Roger,
Right now my situation is very negative. I don't think going for a PhD in Music
composition would be any better, especially since I haven't composed anything
in 20+years (otherwise I might be headed for Tuscaloosa). And computer
science is probably out of the question, given the level of my math skills.
Jeff
