List,
 
The June issue of Baseline Magazine has an article "Today's 10 Hottest IT Jobs".
 
Hey, DBA made the list!
 
7. Database Administrators and Managers
In its annual salary report, Robert Half Technology recently named database 
administration and management as one of the key growth niches in IT, 
particularly in light of Bureau of Labor Statistics predictions that this 
sector will outpace the growth of all other occupations through 2014.

I think this is great news. I hadn't seen such a prediction in recent years. 
Maybe I'll start studying 11g.
