Yes but he also owns the board and makes those rules and interprets them and enforces them. And is responsible for what results from those rules.

Yes I agree. But more important people without a degree must be stopped from dispensing medical advice and prescribing for other people who are using the board. I believe rather than a warning as in Lou's proposal, all such posts should be removed from the board immediately. I believe the danger to be such that all archives should be removed immediately and if Bob wants to go through and decide which are consistent with the new standard and restore them that's his choice. It wouldn't really seem worth the trouble to me.Lou's proposal would be much more difficult to implement although it would also be an improvement over the present system.
Public safety requires action to be taken and it is Bob's responsibility entirely as he is sole owner and administrator.
