Are there any high energy plasma modeling people out there looking for a project? Particularly for high energy ions accelerator 100keV to 1 MeV with interactions among many ion beams on a target?
Engineering is the art of making what you want from what you can get at a profit.

I just Linked In with a former EMC2-er now doing railgun work at GA.

A Facebook post just this morning by "Change the Equation" (a STEM-promotion organization) shows that over the last several years there have been about 3.6 unemployed for each job opening, overall. But for people with a good STEM background there are about 1.9 positions available for each person looking.

It is a good time to be a nerd.

Correction:
It's a good time to be a self-employed nerd who no longer allows dropout fashion-merchandising and accounting majors to dictate what may or may not be worked on.
