Yep.   That's been a problem for decades although it's slowly improving as even the smaller departments realize it and fund serious training.  Meantime, yes, one needs to approach getting involved with those folks with some degree of caution.

Yes, though from the one time I encountered that use case I have my doubts about it.  I was asked to help with such a forensic 
analysis case, and the person I worked with started by asking me about the "BIOS settings" on our SAN array, and 
whether the setting was "left to right" or "right to left".  For some reason, that person could not cope with 
answers like "we don't have a BIOS" and "neither left-to-right nor right-to-left".  Once I hit that road 
block I decided not even to bother mentioning that our SAN device included page based virtualization.  Never did hear anything 
further.  :-)
