James,

I'll betcha there's lots of blue collar workers who would love to face 
your dilemma--the embarrassment of three college degrees and the money, 
power, and prestige those degrees bring.  I'm sure the "salt of the 
earth" get tired of going hungry and not having any money.  And I'm 
certain I'll stay where I am rather than trade with what others do for 
a living that I did but was able to leave--house cleaning, restaurant 
work, and factory production line assembly.  Be careful what you wish 
for; you might get it.

I don't blame those cowboy poets who don't want to go commercial, and I 
can't blame those who do for taking the money and running.
