no one is allowed to give unsolicited advice here, because that would be illegal, and/or against forum rules, basically.
for anyone coming here and giving the impression that their points of discussion were "more equal than others" (guess the book reference), it's a bit rough.
I can guarantee there are very well educated people who post here, that are the furthest thing from a geo, but who have very valid points to offer for discussion.
I can guarantee there are certified geos who post here, and get it completely wrong. I have one very fresh in my mind.
Bottom line - it's no ones job here to make you feel more secure about your investment.
if you're trying to create a hierarchy, get the hell off that.
You can't control other people. I love the constructive discussion here//
