When I often mention here "definitions" as the beginning of the slippery
slope to licensing (on the one hand, censorship on the other), I wasn't
thinking of a bunch of old geezers in Ohio, but, hey, it had to start
somewhere :-) 

I'm curious as to what the penalties are if your job requirements do
include, say, information architect? Is there a precedent in Ohio for one
group of professionals being prevented from or punished for using the
nomenclature claimed by another group?
