Something like 5 posts, I'd guess, if NCX75 is already a . :)

I would agree, and not just because I'm going to school to be a PE. Seems like if anyone is qualified to speak on roads, it would be the people who freakin' build them.

Personally, I don't support that for exactly that reason. The last thing we need are elitist "I'm an engineer and you're not" types of posts.

It adds a ton of pressure, too. We already have bugo yelling at AHTD for making mistakes.

I don't know the exact value - I suggested 5, James suggested 2-3. If he wants to reveal it he can.  ;-) 3 posts and you are a Dirt Road.

Let what you have to say speak for itself- if you're an engineer, you'll come out as knowing what you're talking about and you can earn respect that way. DOT Employee is slightly different because you may have information that isn't widely available, and might not be able to point to a website to cite yourself.

I agree with this 100%.

I'd like to think this website is made up of users who are respectable people, and elitist "I'm an engineer and you're not" posts wouldn't occur.
