That's true, but a lot of jimmies get rustled on both sides. PE's have to go for at least a B.S. and work for 4 years as an intern to earn the right to legally call themselves an engineer.
And oil and gas guys get offended if you tell them they aren't a "true" engineer, because they went to a 18 or so month training program.
