I agree with you 100 percent except for the part of my confusing those
"states".  I don't remember stating that having a degree in something related
to "actually knowing something".  Believe me, I have experienced enough to
know just exactly where you are coming from.  The reason I'm going for so many
degrees is for that marketing advantage (yech!).  It's very unfortunate that
so many companies are looking for degrees rather than of abilities.
