In Europe you are not an Engineer without formal four year university

Ahem, complete and utter ********.


Nice argument.

You spoke complete and utter ******** and I call them as I see them. I know
loads of sound engineers without degrees and none of them have any problems
with using the term.

Phil, the issue is linguistical. While I have absolutely no problem calling
myself a "sound engineer" in English, I would never dare to call myself a
"Toningenieur" in German. In German, for example, "Ingenieur" is a title
that is comparable in status and usage with "Doktor".

In italy too, engineer is comparable to "Doctor"
