Work hard is about the only credit I am willing to give someone with a Ph.D
without further knowing them.  I would *never* say that a PhD proves ones
intellegence.  When I first started college, I used to think people with
PhDs were always smart people (they must be to have a PhD, right?)  Wrong. 
Working and living in a college town (a relatively small city with 2
colleges and a University), I found there are probably less than 25% of
people with PhDs that I would consider smart.  The rest just worked hard,
put up with a lot of political and administrative bull@&#t and learned how
to become a 'zombie of academia'.  Most PhDs I know (which is a ton, I'd bet
way more than the avereage person knows) can't even balance a checkbook or
make logical decisions in everyday life....... geez.....

Sorry....  I'm not going after you Sam....  Just had to get that off my
chest =)
