I remember some standup comic making a similar joke about jazz musicians. They can sit in the studio all day, and then pack up and go to a club and do the same thing all night. I think that musicians have similar love for their work. Other creative workers may as well. As I write this now I am starting to think that is really the difference. It's having some creative outlet. Engineers and scientists are even creative as they design. That I think is the real difference.
