Ranks and titles are, per se, no guarantee. I'm not impressed; I've
seen all sorts/qualities of professors. YMMV.

If that is true (that he was one) I'm wondering why we observe so
often that he posts statements here and doesn't care to explain it.
At least the many _good_ professors I met in my life typically were
keen to explain their theses, statements, or knowledge (instead of
dragging that out of him).
