Not to nitpick, Marvin, but the term "professional" can be used just to signify that you earn your income within a profession. And can have nothing to do with the quality of that person's work within that profession. Of course, a certain amount of credibility is assumed when the term is used, although I do prefer your distinction of a true professional vs. one who just carries the title. So, if I might be so bold as to make a statement to all who do or wish to hold the title of professional: Let us live up to that title by conducting ourselves with professionalism. I feel that that includes a certain amount of professional courtesy for others even if we should disagree with their views. To criticize others for success that we feel is underserved, I feel, is not in keeping with professionalism.
