Comment

I agree with most of the article. One thing I would like to add is the lack of status an engineer has in the UK. In Germany, engineers are graduates and enjoy a high professional status on par with scientists and doctors, here in the UK they are mistaken for the chap in his white van fixing your washing machine.
