you don't need to have a CS degree in faux parchment hanging on your wall
to be a computer scientist.  I think anyone who thinks about the underlying
fundamentals (e.g. mathematics) about their coding is on their way or can
be stated to be a computer scientist.

that said, we need to focus the list on programming, algorithms, OO, structures
etc. and not libraries, system calls, and other language-specific details.
