It's illegal to be an Information Architect in Ohio

Kathy Gill made an interesting post on the SIG-CHI mailing list that the Certification Board of Architects has deemed it illegal to use the term 'architect' without their approval. So what would be the next on their list? Technology Architect? Interaction Architect? Wonder what Richard Saul Wurman has to say about this?

<Quoting Kathy> I received a note last week on Digital-Eve-Seattle, which suggests that an information architect in Ohio has a cease-and-desist order from the state Attorney General's office; she must stop describing herself as an "information architect" effective 22 June. I have not documented this (ie, I haven't seen the cease-and-desist order) but what I have found suggests trouble for the software industry in Ohio. </Quoting Kathy>
