Re: Well, Whats your job?
It's not a paying job, but I volunteer at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia on the weekends or when I have free time. Pretty fun hanging around one of the oldest science museums in the US all day, as well as teaching people of all ages different aspects of science and technology. They also have a Segway that goes around, which hopefully I'll be able to drive soon. My job there is to be a science presenter, which is basically the person who explains to all the patrons what is going on with certain exhibits and explaining the science behind them.

If you have ever been to the Franklin Institute, I would be one of the people wearing the green shirt who run around every once in a while. A better example of what I do is that I would be one of the people who explains all the cool lesser known facts about the Baldwin 60000 locomotive in Railroad Hall. It was made it 1926, can pull 7000 tons, dragged 5 blocks in 5 days by two horses, donoted to Franklin Institute for a dollar (supposedly) in 1933...

I've spent way too much time in that place already...
