For several years (at least) I have been worrying about what to do when Leo is complete.
Aha: just look for already-existing open source projects that interest me.
Amazingly obvious in retrospect! This isn't the 1980's, where research meant xeroxing articles in the University of Wisconsin Engineering Library.
This Aha is a big deal for me. I see now how stressed I have been about where to go from here. No more need for beach walks and daydreaming. I just need to explore the myriad of cool projects that already exist. Perhaps I'll contribute to a project. Perhaps a project will suggest a spin off.
