Yeah, that's right, because only the most prestigious science institutes
have Geocities pages.

Yeah. It's not like I would believe an .edu site or something!

Have a great day!

Why pay when you can have something for free?! I've seen plenty of
..edu and .gov sites full of crooks and hypocrites.

And you're right. I have no letters after my name either... although I
am a "graduate"!

If I was called "Doctor Abdul Ahad" or "Professor Abdul Ahad" then the
respect would come flooding in. Well, my own view is respect has to be
earnt through hard work, not simply by adding letters like PhD, MsC,
Fellowships of science establishments, after your name and so on!

Luckily, in the real world, you only (legally) get to add those titles
after, wait for it, years of hard work. Whaddayaknow, eh?
