Aaron - What's with this "doctor" stuff and throwing out baloney about how much a meeting cost and how many other "doctors" were there? Big deal, who cares?
If I recall your posts from a year or two ago you received a PhD, not a medical degree. Most PhD holders (at least in the circles I travel in) are considered pretentious if they insist on being addressed as "Doctor." A student addressing a college professor might be an exception, but this is the anonymous internet and we're not your students.
I believe there is at least one "real" doctor on this board, an anesthesiologist. He doesn't throw around a title. Why do you?
