I quite agree.
The problem is that the word Engineer actually has a definition (for example; "The application of scientific and mathematical principles to practical ends such as the design, manufacture, and operation of efficient and economical structures, machines, processes, and systems."). Some numpty who comes along, looks at your boiler and tells you that a new one is required is not, by definition, an Engineer. Its a real shame that the term has been devalued in this country by not being protected.
