Just don't try to use "Engineer" in any job title in Arizona unless you're a 
Registere P.E. (Professional Engineer) with the State of Arizona.  My former 
employer, a PhD geophysicist named Zonge, had a company called "Zonge 
Engineering and Research Organization (acronym ZERO, and the geophysical data 
we gathered was Complex Resistivity, Greek ancronym Cee-Rho), and the state 
came after us.  We had to have a P.E. on staff (we hired a local on a retainer 
basis just for the P.E. cert) or change the company name.  

CNEs and MCSEs went through the same thing a few years later.
