It looks like History is the field to be in these days (too bad it's not my field). More jobs than PhDs.
In other news, according to Reuters, researchers in Paisley have determined that sex before a talk or presentation is what the doctor ordered. Another good reason to bring your lovers along for job talks, but leave them in the hotel room.

That second article totally explains now why people travel with partners to conferences! I've always wondered.
I suppose it also explains why so many have affairs at conferences.
Of course, the one time I brought my wife to a conference (in Belgium) and our first son, who was just a few months old, the talk (actually a talk and chairing two sessions) was a success, but I wound up not attending anything besides my panels the first day. I was too busy enjoying my family's company.
