This NG is an international public forum
wherein one expects to see technical excellence.

It should be a place for enlightenment
and reasoned technical discussion. It
certainly used to be like that.

For some reason, best known only to
yourself, you have chosen to turn it into
an outpost of the infants' school
playground using behaviour and emotional
stances left behind years ago by mature contributors.

Such an exhibition by you does nothing for your
reputation, nor for the well-being of this NG.

Shame on you.

You should know better.

Stupid Boy.

I wonder what Polymath's views are on the subject of USA technical
qualifications?

Oh, he is probably as jealous of them as he is of UK ones.

Probably equivalent to what used to be our 11-Plus.

Bush probably failed to get one.

All this bull**** gets back to my original point! What a bunch of pompous
blowhards.

My BSEE allows me to calculate field strength of any EM field in 3D space
using Maxwell's equations. I know the Brits degree is much better and the
USA is just another English possession.

As far as bull**** goes, your article below,
being as it is a non-sequitur to the material
quoted, really takes the biscuit!

In Britland, everybody is permitted to use
Maxwell's equations, irrespective of any
qualification that they might have. To claim,
as you do, that your degree grants you such
a permission would seem to show you up for the
pompousness that you deride.

The Yank Bachelor's degree is roughly equivalent to what the
Brit "A" Levels were 30 years ago. You need to get a Yank
Master's to get anywhere near the Brit Bachelor - except,
of course if we're talking about Open University because
in the early days you could do 6 unrelated elementary
subjects - one per year- and still get a degree.

Because of these early OU degrees, one has to consider
that _ALL_ OU degrees are the equivalent of 6 'O' levels,
and all of them in Cookery.

Gareth, isn't your real "problem" with these qualifications that you
don't actually have a degree yourself?

Did an audit of qualifications by one of your employers not find some
errors in a certain person's qualification records?

Did that same person not then try to do an Open University degree and
get disqualified when caught cheating in his examinations?

anyone can try to use them Ham or not Howver without real training and
paractice you are unlikely to do so correctly

I could do the same as Wayne at least at some point in the past I
would have to sit down and think about it today

but most folks can't even read the equations indeed the standard
keyboard can't type the equations without some fancy dancing
