I will be retiring at the age of 31, once I get my wife out of med school. I'd like to be the stay at home dad...however the likeliness of this happening is probably slim...

My title is long and silly. I run a team of very smart computer geeks at Western Washington University.
(Note: if I was brighter I would be ON the team instead of in charge.)

Hey other Todd,

Here's the deal, you need people that know how to do the work and you need the "real brains" behind the operation (yourself) that come up with all the brilliant ideas

If noone was in charge you'd just end up with lots of code that didn't do anything. Besides, a team is only as good as it's leader, so if they are very smart, they must have a very smart boss as well.

On a side note, the longer and sillier your title is, usually means the more important you are to your organization.
