BTW, if anyone is interested... I will not go back to a forum (tacticalforums) that uses terms like 'quack' to describe me. My professionalism prevents me from stooping to their immature level. Doctors that do this are typically relieved of their license to practice as are lawyers and other professionals. This site stands as a testimony to those that serve their country as professionals. They have welcomed a civilian (me) whose only offering to them is a higher intellect about what I practice and know and the ability to deal with reality and reason. The term 'expert' has been granted to me by many judges, attorneys, physicians and others, both civilian and federal when I testify in court and give lectures around the country. I really don't care for the term since it is arbitrary and sometimes earned for the wrong reasons, but that is for everyone else to figure out for themselves.
