Of course. What does programming language/compiler development, and 
aerospace have in common?

You need to make _reliable_ systems and subsystems, and you need to have 
an understanding of what people actually do (as opposed to what they say 
or promise they do).


That's something where you, Walter, beat academia, institutions, 
corporations, and crazy individualists at this game. Hands down.
