Re: Professional Engineers and degrees:

Years ago, a big east coast manufacturer bid on a research job. THe prospective client asked for a copy of the credentials of the people that would be working on the project. He commented on the small number of advanced degrees, despite the fact the company had a reputation for being creative. The VP in charge of research told him "My people are doo damn busy innovating to be bothered with more formal schooling".

And, within reason, I believe that. Too much ejudimacitaion solidifies the brain to off beat ideas. Observe children and their creativity with blocks or erector sets. That haven't been told yet that his or that is impossible.
