I dunno whether we transfer *knowledge* - I transfer *information*, i think
- interesting topic for a discussion, tho - what *do* we transfer?
I tend to not like the use of "engineer" in our titles, altho I agree it
tends to get us more respect and $$ - it's just that it reminds me of
"sanitation engineer" for janitor...

I rather like the title used by Arthur Andersen -- Knowledge Transfer
Specialist. People with this title write printed and on-line documentation,
develop training courses, and (occasionally) do presentations.
The common goal in all these activities -- to transfer knowledge to others.
