<<As for the PhD reference, Daniel isn't one, so where does that put your faith in him? As far as I can tell, he doesn't have a bachelors, but that does not define success. If memory serves, Warren Buffet doesn't have a degree, but I'll bet you would take his investment advise. One sees only what they want to see.>>

Magmar, thanks for your insights.

But just FYI, Warren Buffett has a Master of Science degree in Economics from Columbia University.

Getting onto the PhD part, I don't think that's necessary. But
when you're in high-tech field you better have a degree in science
or technology from a respected accredited college or university. There are some exceptions to that like Bill Gates, but he got into Harvard and he dropped out because he was keenly paying attention to what was going on with the computer revolution. He felt that if he didn't leave, he would miss the window of opportunity. Secondly, just the fact that he got into Harvard probably means that he has an IQ of above 120 - so he's smart!

On the other hand, I believe that De Liege might have a community college
degree, at best. Or did he drop out?
