Ugh,
That site was so trashy I just had to go back and get some more jollies guffawing at its banality.
Look at this (from the FAQ):
=======================
Question"Why do I need a university degree?"
Answer "A degree allows the holder the legal use of titles (such as Dr or Professor) or post nominal letters (such as MBA or PhD). An example of this includes putting a title on your passport, driver's license, letterheads, credit cards, and business cards etc.
The immediate advantage to the holder is the natural tendency in society to defer to people with degrees of this nature. This is particularly true in older countries such as those in Europe. The deference shown to holders of Doctoral Titles in Germanic and Latin Countries is legendary. Fully booked restaurants suddenly find vacancies, hotels miraculously discover the availability of "more pleasant" rooms, airport checking counters open inexplicably to offer special service while others wait in line and holders have found themselves being upgraded to first class tickets at no extra cost."
=======================
Of particular interest in that pile of junk is this little gem:
=======================
"The immediate advantage to the holder is the natural tendency in society to defer to people with degrees of this nature."

Now where, oh where, have we seen stuff like this?
Does the name JK Rowling give anybody a hint?
