Thanks for posting that article. Yes, there is a difference between scientists and engineers.
I had a friend in engineering school 34 years ago whose father and uncle were rocket engineers, as opposed to rocket scientists. (His last name is Von Braun).
And then there are those who call themselves inventors who expect the machinist to do all the mechanical design for their inventions.
