It's that sort of thing that drove Chico to disappear up his own virtual login.

I though Chico disappeared into his own fundament?

I know fook all, me.

Surely LB, you're and expert in evil, general wickedness and mischief, are you not?

However, I'm with you.

I don't consider myself a bona fide 'expert' in any particular field.

I'm am quite knowledgeable and competent in quite a few areas but an 'expert' suggests a far deeper understanding and level of authority.

For example, most senior lawyers are knowledgeable and competent (one hopes) but very few of them are actually acknowledged 'experts' at law.

The status of 'expert' can only truly be conferred by ones professional peers, or some competent authority (as in an 'expert witness' in legal cases).

Yes, relations are odd things. Does being an expert in a subject infer that the subject has an expert? i.e. Is it possible to be an expert in a subject, but the subject have no expert?

Also, are these relation things real, relationes secundum esse, or are they merely figures of speach, relationes secundum dici?

Therein lies the neat little conundrum. As you have no way of knowing whether the frame of reference is shared, there is no correct answer (absolutely speaking).

No, the problem here is not with the word expert, but with the concept of a subject.
Take plumbing for example, a plumber can be an expert at soldering the joints, but an academic might be an expert at the theory of soldering joints. A third person might be an expert at teaching others how to solder joints. There might be a whole new method of doing joints that has not been invented yet, but when it is there will be a whole new set of experts.

Correct spelling, indeed, is one of the arts that are far more esteemed by schoolma'ams than by practical men, neck-deep in the heat and agony of the world.

What dictionary did you get that word out of?

Schoolmarm!

That's the sort of thing that happens to you if you don't accept that everything is relative.

That's so old. Many years ago a pug-nosed greek tried that. Being a smart-alek p1ssed everybody else off so much, they made him drink hemlock.
