ok, so if you guys all lurk in the background, WHY???

and now that ive got your attention, i would LOVE some advice, privately
or herein, regarding jobs in nat-hist museums (or other venues).  I'm
NOT asking you to post job openings (as if there were any) -- although
that wouldnt hurt.
        i am curious as to WHAT i can do in a museum.  i have always loved
nat.hist museums (i have been to philly's academy of natural sciences a
billion times through the years), and now that i have  amaster's in
zoology i wonder if i could use it as a curator or collections assistant
or even in exhibit research or design (in colege i majored in bi as well
as English, for creative writing).  i would love to know how one
ventures into these areas.
        i do apologize to other people who may read this thinking i'm using the
forum as a personal; job search place.  i am glad if other young people
who are ready to slit their over-educated throats may join in the
discussion , or benefit from the advice i hopefully am provoking.

sincerely, ej karetny
