Oh yeah. I always liked history but it's now a favourite pastime. The best explanation I give for my growing interest is that you learn from mistakes and history is full of them. In more so, the greater the power, the bigger the mistakes and the harsher the consequences. But really I think that's just a rationalisation for a burgeoning fascination that I can approach with greater maturity.
My wife is the niece of a history professor too. It's interesting that the more I learn the less I want to talk to him about it - perhaps because I'm always learning there's a hell of a lot I don't know. Intimidating.
