This has been a very interesting thread.

I think nearly all of the observations are valid. They differ mainly because 
of the different circumstances and experiences of those who choose to post 
rather than lurk!

Most of us have encountered the extremes of the "educated" guys. The fellow 
with nearly no education that seems to succeed without trying and the one 
who has all the credentials but has so far been a liability where ever he 
goes.

Most of the time credentials get you the opportunities but your own 
intellect and social skills bring you success.
