[Sigia-l] Computers not complex enough?

[CD Evans]

In response to the quoted article,

At a best guess, In Britain, irony runs thick and intelligence runs rampant.


This article may be a response to the lack of clarity in what is 
supposedly a 'personal' computer.

British society (and I should hope a few others) expects 
professionals to have a responsibility to work for clients, as well 
as toward social benefit. Our role should defend people in their 
established way of life, if the machines don't make sense, our 
profession is here to make them make sense.

If any British people on this list have experience in establishing 
societal professions, I'd say it's almost time for governmental 
approval. A quick look at the Guardian's IT jobs page supports this 
statement as there is, finally, an Information Architect title in the 
system.

All apologies for the delay, as they say, timing is everything.
