I do know about them.  You make an assumption that I don't.

>I have skills and knowledge that you do not...

I would never, ever say this to someone.  I can't imagine size of 
the ego it would take to say this to someone.

You are going to be pretty upset if you testify as an expert witness 
in Court on your area of expertise.  The judge turns to the jury and 
instructs them that they, as lay people, can disagree with the 
expert and come to a contrary conclusion as he does.  The Court, 
like me, believes you are right because you're right and you're 
wrong because you're wrong, never because of who you are or what 
you've read. 

What will you do - scream that all the jurors are wrong because they 
don't have your skills?

Have some trust in the intelligence of your fellow man, even the 
onces without degrees.
