Why does this guy continue to link his logs to the story submissions? There has to be some conflict of interest for this guy to continue to submit stories...
What is a good balance between protecting citizens and protecting citizen rights? Apply your answers to legislation that you have supported/signed into law. What are the specific strengths and weaknesses of these laws?
Explain the cost-effectiveness of your plans for domestic security? how much do your plans cost versus how effective are the plans, and couple your answers with the idea of the balance of such laws with nuisance and usefulness?
I believe the point to be that it does seem suspicious to request such information, but the information by itself does not incriminate an individual. It is my belief that this country is headed down a dangerous road, because I believe that the government given free reigns could discourage individuals from requesting politically dangerous information(information that should be freely available to anybody.) By threatening anyone who requests legitimate information, the government makes increasingly difficult to get information that should be available to a free (libre) society.
I definitely recommend pursuing education, whether pursuing a degree or picking up a book or hacking out a minor software project. (Learning 'by rote' is definitely different then learning 'by do'. Probably the best people that I was exposed to concerning programming or Software Development had both been educated but had a natural affinity for picking things up on their own by doing it themselves.) I recently graduated school (BS in math and CS at a liberal arts college 2 years ago) and I would consider myself passionate about continuing to educate myself, whether its computer science or history or whatever(I read a lot of books and I also study Russian in my free time).
Educate yourself if you are interested, have goals in mind, but be realistic. The points that commenters have made are rooted with the sourest of personal circumstances. But I am guessing you didn't recieve your MD by listening to people tell you that you were not going to succeed, so if you have the ability and the skills, there is no reason that you shouldn't educate yourself and possibly pursue a 2nd career in computer/engineering technology.
Some of the previous commenters have mentioned some books that you might want to read before making a decision. I would suggest that you try to expose yourself to different concepts and ideas in CS/engineering to get a grasp of what you would like to do before making a large commitment(taking classes or getting a degree.)
I myself would like to continue to educate myself by getting a degree in the "hard" sciences(ok I am not sure if I will ever get the chance, but if I have a little more time or money, I am there.)
Above all I believe that you need to have a more specific idea about what you want to do before pursuing any major steps.

Good luck!
