Touche.

However, like I said, my interests are mostly mine alone.  I do not 
speak for business people.  If someone wants to do certifications, as 
long as it doesn't affect me, fine.  I will think it is silly, but 
whatever people want to do, they should do.

But as soon as I am forced to take some exam just to get considered for 
a decent job is when I will start to get *really* annoyed, and annoying.  
So my bitching now is proactive.  :-)
