He appears to be Italian. Why would he be registered in the U.S?
Registered as what?
I've worked as an engineer in the U.S. and I never was registered and
certainly wasn't licensed. I never met a licensed engineer in the
States. (Canada's different that way, as are lots of countries,
including, I suppose, Italy.)
I can look in a Japanese registry but he probably isn't there either.
But very probably not the real name.
What on earth makes you think that is not his real name?!? This is not
a James Bond movie. Why would he use a fake name?
I am sure that signing a technical document with a fake name, or
claiming you are a registered engineer with a fake name, would also be
serious violations of the laws.
People do not seem to appreciate this, but as Samuel Florman points
out, professional engineers are very careful not to violate laws and
regulations. Not because they are highly moral people. Because they
will lose their license if they are caught, and then they will have no
way to make a living. They would throw away all that training and
years of experience. I expect they would have difficulty finding any
kind of job. A middle aged guy like Fioravanti would spend the rest of
his working life sweeping floors or flipping burgers. Rossi would have
to pay a huge bribe to get him to do that.
A university scientist could fake a report more easily. He would just
say he made a mistake. People don't read scientific papers anyway. I
read 'em, and I find many real mistakes.
