Just read this story in the New York Times about a corporate executive who after 30 years gives it all up to go back to school for a degree in meteorology so he can become a weatherman. He has always had a passion for the nuance of the weather, so when he lost his job in a downsizing he acted on it. His wife is anxious about the future but supportive. Her husband tells her that forecasting anything farther out than seven days is just speculation anyway. Bravo to them all. For a great book on the subject, check out Second Acts by Stephen Pollan.
