You must be a moron if you think that was my point. I'll be the last one to
waive my degree at you since I don't have one yet. You want to know what I
do for a living? I work for a land clearing and demolition business, doing
everthing from bidding large earth-moving jobs to operating a bulldozer to
changing dumptruck tires to rebuilding diesel engines. All while finishing
up a Geology degree. At any given time I'll have more grease under my
fingernails than most anyone on these lists.

Would you rather discuss the late Permian extinction and the resulting lack
of species diversity in Triassic marine deposits, or the pros and cons of
in-frame rebuilding a Detroit 671 diesel?

The point is to be a student on your own. Watch the best, emulate them, and
understand why. Think about it on your own. Read everything you can and pick
out what's good and what's crap. Don't let idiots get other people hurt. Let
them hurt themselves...it thins the herd and makes dive gear available at a
good price.

Sounds like you are a wee bit insecure...Don't be. A GED is perfectly fine.
