Book Smart Don't Mean Worldly Wise

I was reading posts in one of the Google Groups of which I am a member, and interspersed between legitimate, informative posts were some angry messages from a woman on her iPhone who, apparently, was also getting the emails. Of course, we know you don't get the emails unless you are subscribed to the group, right?

She sent these messages:

   Stop sending me these emails!!!!!!!!

   Please pardon errors--msg sent from my iPhone.
   [her name], PhD, LPC

and

   Stop these emails!!!!!

   Please pardon errors--msg sent from my iPhone.
   [her name], PhD, LPC

Okay, she doesn't want to get the emails, but look at her sig line. She has a PhD and is an LPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor, someone who "has advanced training, a graduate academic degree, clinical work experience, and has passed a state-certified licensing examination. Counselors treat all sorts of problems: from alcoholism and eating disorders to relationship issues and depression."

Sounds like a really SMART person, doesn't it? But not smart enough to just remove her name from the Google Group. [snicker]
