   No, there are PLENTY of idiots that become professors, even with PhDs.   
      
   I suspect you haven't been close enough to a PhD program to understand   
   what it actually means. It CAN be a major achievement, but without   
   seeing the work done for it, it can also be essentially meaningless.   
      
   I guess you aren't smart enough to know that.   
      
   After all, the old saying is those that can't do, teach, pointing out   
   that SOME people become teachers because they can't actually do the work   
   well enough to actually get results.   
      
   Of course, since you refuse to actually reveal who most of these are, or   
   what they ACTUALLY agreed to, you have ZERO actual athorites that you   
   are hanging your fallacy of proof by athority on, showing how little you   
   actually understand how things work.   
      
   And, we actually don't need any idiot PhD Computer Science Professors,   
   we just need ONE Idiot trying to claim what they say supports his   
   theories, when he has already shown form one example that he is actually   
   incapable of understanding what the words actually mean.
