Sir
Yes you are correct, unfortunately the majority will not accept this clear definition, because it offends them. The behavior that one can expect, like the behavior directed at Bleedvalve is clear proof. Often those with a more cranial approach are shunned, mainly because they are interpreted as a threat. Large and small companies are not looking for those who have ideas, they are looking for those that follow. Point out a discrepancy or an inadequacy and watch your job , go bye,bye. Not because you are wrong, but because you've offended sombody who is driven by ego instead of reason.
There is a false assumption that because you are an intellect, you are devoid of common sense, like the example of one poster saying the Phd. types walk into TR's. The reason for this is because they are focused, or is it because they are not smart enough to figure out it's dangerous? The reasoning is flawed with no substance. So I say Phus , just let them believe what they like, sometimes it better not to try to teach person the error of thier ways.
After all, the world needs ditch diggers too...
