Most doctors have real jobs and are way to busy to waste their time doing this. Lawyers on the other hand charge exorbitant fees and apparently do very little; just look at how they copiously post during working hours! As for taxi drivers -- I did that for six months after college, and your back hurts so much at the end of the day the last thing you want to do is sit in front of a computer, no matter how great your accumulated wisdom may be.

You left out bartenders.

Doctors and taxi drivers may be mainly on the move and have myriad non-work moments interspersed in their work by its nature. Lawyers may mainly be at the computer where their words are the entire extent of their output ... and more words which may be tangentially off point serve as the "break" in thought that makes cogent thought possible.

Sooo .. no, not enough damage has been done as yet. ;-)

All good points. Hairdressers is another good one.

Still, the point is the blogosphere is biased by the nature of the work that various people do. People with jobs in front of their computer all day, e.g. me, can blog constantly, whereas people who no doubt would make interesting blogs can't because of the nature of their work.

Just saying, y'know.

There are MANY doctors out there blogging! You'd be surprised at just how many there are.

Lawyers? Wordy windbags. Can't get enough of themselves.

Cab drivers? Well, I know of two who blog. But, unless they have laptops in their cabs, they're never home long enough to post. Hey.....maybe they should try AudBlogging!!!

Look on the bright side. At least this way you can get lawyers' wisdom free of charge.
