Having had the unfortunate experience of dealing with some truly
medieval spreadsheet hackery, I can't say I'm not looking forward to
such a day <duck/>.
Seriously, I agree with Franz, and I don't see where he could be seen to
have insulted anyone particular.
Remember that anyone can fetch some paracetamol/acitominophen for their
friend with a headache, or apply a bandage to the calf of a comrade who
suffered a strain on a soccer pitch, but that does not give them the
right to call themselves a "doctor" in any official capacity.
