I mean, some of us who work in exempt industries, where PE's are about as common as a snowman in july, have ethical issues as well.
I for one, don't consider this an ethical issue, as much as a govt and regulatory issue.
Interesting site though, Slugger.

I was not trying to engage anyone in an arguement. I have come to the conclusion that we may all "agree to disagree" on this topic. My post was not to be reactionary to the subject.
To me, this seems an appropriate thread to suggest to someone (who has, desires to get, or wishes to converse about liscensure) to start a new forum. All these issues; regulation, legal aspects of liscensure, (even how we unlisc. engineers shouldn't even call ourselves engineers) etc. could be addressed there.
In this forum, liscensure is a suject that seems to just stir feathers and agitate people because there IS a disagreement over the subject of the necessity of liscensure.
I do feel that this is not an issue of ethics, but one of legal regulation.

I can see that as a forum with very little activity since us pro-PE guys would tend to wait for a question to post there and the anti-PE guys would tend to avoid it.
If you want to persue it, just ask in this thread and we'll see what site-managment thinks of the idea.

Not starting a debate because I used to not have the P.E. and several of us that were trying to get it knew the rules, but our company hands out Engineering titles like they were free.

FWIW I'm definitely exempt and have no intention of getting a PE.

"employee of industrial or manufacturing firm."
This is a pretty broad definition. I am with Greg, word for word, on this one...

What does bother me are the companies that either ignore or abuse design codes using the excuse that they are exempt, when they probably aren't.
That's just an observation however, based on the experience of one person, me.

I have been very confused on the whole Engineering Title thing myself until I found that link posted above. Now I feel that many companies are mis-informed or as confused as I used to be.
I think some boards can be more proactive in education the public and industries in their jursidictions about the licensing in their states. I think this would be healthy over all for everyone.
