Perhaps I was wrong in the way I read Rosmary's posts.  I went back and
reread them but it still seems to me it was not about professionalism.  I
would agree with you though Jim, on the professional quality created
without being a pro.  Sadly the reverse is true as well, we have all seen
people who earn their living at something produce really amateur work and
who lack a "professional attitude".
