you can still qualify! To me, a 'hobby' is something you do for
fun, in your spare time. I suspect a large percentage of this
list make their living using their hobby. A true hobbyist probably
doesn't have much, if any, formal education or training in 
whatever their hobby is. They also tend not to have the high-priced
'professional' tools. The piclist members being an exception.
