So true! Also thinking of people like Ben Franklin and Leonardo da Vinci, but those are all historical examples.

The press release points out that the increasing affordability/availability of profesisonal equipment (be it cameras, hiking equipment, computer memory cards, etc.) has made it easier for amateurs to get the technology they need to pursue their interests. I'm also thinking that the more access to higher education (at least in Britian, where this study was done and where [I think] college is less expensive than here) has something to do with the rise of extremely professional hobbyists.
