I agree with Will's argument that "interaction design", whatever the final definition eventually comes out to be, can be more than what we think of as a "standard" interface. In his description, I did not see a civil engineer any more than I see in the description of an interface/interaction designer a software engineer.
I'm not sure that I'm following the descriptions of what many of the majority on this list are proposing as what it is that an interaction designer does. The general examples seem to a bit esoteric, while the practical descriptions seem to have more to do with a person's level of autonomy and status at work than their actual application of skills. Rather than discuss what an interaction or interface designer is, why not discuss what it is they are not. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
