Well, not that I want to make a big deal (or in fact, any deal at all) about it, but I am still a lawyer. As one who has had a Bachelor of Laws degree (LLb) conferred upon him by an approved and accredited law school, I am a lawyer. In the same way that a doctor is always a doctor, even though he may not be practising, I still have the degree, so I'm a still a lawyer. I'm not a member of any law society or other governing body, so I can't call myself a barrister or solicitor, nor am I allowed to practice law or give a legal opinion. But, I take your (tongue-in-cheek) point. For all intents and purposes, no, I'm no longer a lawyer. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
