I did not suggest for one moment, Rewboss, that you go into some lengthy process of checking credentials.

"Why not have a basic rule that would have moderators and anyone else who purports to be a teacher provide some measure of proof for their contentions?"

Go thru the thread yourself. You'll see that the measure of proof is limited to the typical cliche scare tactics of prescriptive grammar.
