What "field"... I guess in light of my tractor comment I'm supposed to say
something like *soy beans*. hehe

I guess you're wondering if I was a farmer... not! I've worked in quite a few
vocations, from culinary to aircraft to nuclear accelerators. Tractors, real
tractors, are expensive... $50K doesn't buy a real farm machine, more of a
fancy schmancy estate tractor. Real farm tractors these days typically run
$500K and up, the more sophisticated versions don't even need a driver, they
operate via on board computers and global positioning.... makes nice straight
rows with no wasted overlapping.
