Tom Wheaton is only partly right. Your typical
 
Law Firm Barbie is not qualified to do the kind
 
of title search that a CRM historian needs, any
 
more than I am qualified to dig up King Tut.
 
Nobody, but nobody, can come out of school with
 
a diploma that qualifies him or her to be a CRM historian
 
because the colleges simply are not teaching it.
 
However, we do have the secretary's measly standards
 
for historians, which should be minimally followed, which
 
is not currently the case. Maybe if the standards were
 
enforced for historical research we would get some CRM
 
historians entering the field.
 
 
 
As for Technicians, what is a technician? Sez Who? by what
 
standards are they measured? I can hire a kid out of high
 
school and call him a technician. Or I can hire a kid out of
 
college and call him a historian. Same difference. Emperor
 
is just as naked.
