err... He's made it bigger than anyone else on the planet... sans PhD.

Which was kinda the point.. doh.. ;)

Nevertheless given the chances of a random sample of 100 people with PhD vs a random sample of people w/o PhD's one would still expect higher knowledge of a subject in the PhD group, given they did their PhD in the subject.

On the other hand should you compare the PhD group vs a purely practically experienced group things might be different.

Really depends on which shoulder you wear your chip on. :)
