Bah!  Isn't "making a contribution to society" far more important than 
your "work"?!

Yes, that's a joke.  Interestingly, back in my college days, we had RMS 
(Richard Stallman) come by for a day - very interesting.  As I was 
leaving campus to go to work, I stopped by for a final "Nice having met 
you - thanks for Emacs" kind of chat.  It was just the department chair, 
Stallman, and myself.  When discussing what I was doing (COBOL at the 
time - ack!), Stallman went off on some tangent about how it was a waste 
of time and he wouldn't do it (write in COBOL, that is).  My (obvious) 
reply was:  "Well, I don't particularly care for COBOL myself, but it's 
nice being able to pay bills."
