Re: Skills vs education (was: Senior technical writer?)

["Gene Kim-Eng" <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

I wasn't so sure about that, which was why I added that last bit
at the end.  A "professional engineer" (lower case) could be
someone who makes his/her living as an engineer, which in
most companies is a professional position more analogous to
the tech writer's situation of the thread, as opposed to a
"Licensed Professional Engineer" (upper case).

The post from Kevin to which I responded was clearly addressing
Professional Orders. If we're going to discuss Doctors and Lawyers, then
the equivalent in the Engineering field is P.Eng. And thus my post and
position is entirely justified.
