I agree, but there are a small (very small) few of us who are in a High School Specialty Center for Engineering. I go to the CFE(HS)^2 [Center for Engineering @ Highland Springs High School] in Henrico Co. near Richmond, Va, and I believe that we should at least be able to call ourselves "engineers in training" at the least.

The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.
