[snip] Hmm.. what with this and that anti-Bush political rant, all I can say is "truly, you have a dizzying intellect." I'm not at all suggesting the return of the medieval guild but rather a more practicable and honest approach to the problem of creating more, high-quality professionals in this and other emerging discliplines (and letting universities excel at what they do best). There's nothing inherently medieval about the journeyman model, which is really my point--humans have been doing that for, well, for as long as we've had professions. --Ambrose ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
