"Curious: were you born in China and still eligible for the lottery?"
I was born in Western Europe. I am not Assian.
"I thought Nanotech was a much coveted field to be in"
Me too, but as mentioned before, Ideas are like hemorrhoids. This was mine.
Not sure why. Wrong time. Wrong coast. Bad luck.
I had an interview at Agilent. They had 500 applicants. You needed to have a PhD or MBA or both. I was among the last three candidates and they congratulated me, "you got the job".
