Hi Shawn,

I don't disagree with your comments. I did not say that a degree was 
required in order to testify. What I said, or meant to say, was that 
in many cases, a jury most likely will have more confidence with 
testimony from not only an expert, but an expert that also has a 
degree. 

If my intent was not clear, I hope that it is now. Glad I gave you an 
opportunity to jump into the discussion :)

Sandy
