Go into chemistry, instead. Lots of nice women. [Edit: It is also a cool subject. And you'll get access to lots of ethanol.]

Looks like I did well: studied physics and chemistry, got MS in physics and astronomy. Dropped out of PhD in astronomy — was already working as a programmer. To tell the truth I still feel sorry for not getting that PhD, but on the other hand I was not going to be an astronomer anyway, so what's the point.
