Specialty as in occupation or in hobby?

I have a degree in computer science but I really can't call myself an expert as I only need to compare my knowledge to peope like Netepic or Cybershadow to feel inadequate.

As for hobby, that would be "useless bits of obscure info" (= knowledge of old 40k fluff and different game systems). I don't know enough about military history to consider myself an expert (unfortunately) no matter how much I'd like to.

Ditto with zoology.

BTW, etymology = wordz.  Entomology = bugz. :;):

I'm a database expert (and corporate applications) in real life (not very exciting) but also a Scuba Diving Instructor.. (which is exciting!)...

Just look at my name, does that give you a hint? :p

Only joking, otherwise I would have to kill you all for knowing :p

Ahem, yes anyway I'm in construction, and specifically tiling. Not very exciting I know, but sometimes it can be challenging. :;):

I used to be a paleoartist, painting and sculpting dinos and stuff, and I've dabbled in writing, just the odd magazine article for Prehistoric Times and Miniature Wargames mags, but nothing major.
I know lots about dinos but have no actual training or qualifications, but if anyone needs dino info, I've got stacks of scientific papers and stuff, and am in contact with quite a few paleontologists so just shout!

I'm now a model horse sculptor, because the market is huge, and the customers are female so know how to spend money :D

regards,
Reaver

I work for the USPS, so I guess that makes me an expert on how things get screwed up from point A to point B.... :p

I am an specialist in modern manoeuvre warfare, man management, leadership, and general soldier skill as a Tank Commander and Instructor of armoured warfare. I currently teach military law at an NCO school. I can't wait to get back to my tank, especially as the first of our M1A1 AIM's arrived the other day.

Cheers
CAL

I'm supposed to be the laser type, but it's only in laser materials processing (you do get a 9kW lascannon, however  :p ). Then there's the shipyard work, and the remote sensing jobs (aerial photography and thermal imaging), and the astronomy postgrad, and the materials postgrad I'm working on, and the lecturing on materials, and the wierd conversions business..... jack of many trades, master of none....

Computers. Mostly software developing in C, C++, and everything .NET, with a dose of XML thrown in for good measure; but also moderate skills in Unix Sysadmin and Oracle DBA and recently acquiring specialization in EMC's SAN management and Mainframe Business Continuity (and related REXX-based automation).

I am certainly no expert in computers, but I know enough to get around. My main expertise is in robotics and cybernetics, practicalities and real world problems, along with human-robot interfaces and interaction.

Ohh, and I wargame a bit!  :D

6 years USMC infantry
BS Chemistry
BA English
Pursing MA English

Professional life is a mix of writing, finance and law with the most recent emphasis on law.

But I hate lawyers.

Yep.  "Hate" is definitely not too strong of a word here.  When the revolution comes, the first thing we do is kill all the lawyers.  I think that's definitely the way to go.  In fact, I would paraphrase Thomas Jefferson:

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots, tyrants, and LAWYERS.

In general I'm a history junky, with military history being my specialty. I'll read about any era of warfare, but I know more about WW II than anything else. I was a history major in college, with a concentration in Modern Europe. I'm certified to teach history in Connecticut, but there way too many applicants for every opening. So, I have yet to land a teaching job.

As for how I earn a living, I work in insurance.

I have a degree in zoology, but have since moved on and gained graduate and postgraduate qualifications in psychology - specialisation neuroscience.  Zoology (or biological sciences as it's called now), was very good preparation for psychology.
