Perhaps, or due to changes in society and the attitude overall toward
professionals and people whose power and respetability until recently
rested upon knowing things that other people could not reasonably hope
to find out...but now rests upon knowing _how_ to do things that need
to be done, and what the practical meaning of the things that anyone
can find the text of is.  And of course simple things like what a
normal epididymis feels like.
