I think you are safe saying you are an engineer, just not professional... :-) Looks like its true for a lot of states. In California, http://www.dca.ca.gov/pels/ reports (quote) <p align="center"><b>3.

It is also unlawful for anyone other than a professional engineer registered by this Board to use the titles "Professional Engineer," "Registered Engineer," or "Consulting Engineer." </p> (endquote) --woody -- Robert Wooddell Weaver email: woody () wiltelnsi com Network Engineer voice: 510.773.7420 Williams Communication Data Group pager: 5107737420 () page nextel com [metrocall has better reception] pager: =5107024334 () metrocall com
