Heh... I tend to go for a couple of years at a time without doing much
electronics work at all, selling all my gear on eBay and going back to the
real world to rebuild my finances. Eventually I feel compelled to return to
the workbench, where I spend a lot of time and money answering questions
that could, frankly, be better resolved for free in a library.
I don't recommend this approach to others, especially those with families
and other real-world responsibilities. :)
