Nice to see my professional peers spoken of so highly, but if you are going

That sets them apart from the linguistic types (interpreters) since there
has been a struggle for decades to see the work as a profession, and at
some point it was thought that if the capital "I" was used it might cause
better respect (and therefore jobs). (Idle minds are the Devil's tool
boxes.)
