Think about it, let's say I got a degree in 1988, or 1992, or even 1997, what good would it be now?

I think the biggest thing I bring to the table is I am really super anal about theory rather than just code. Knowing how to keep your program functions seperate until the last minute when it all comes together helps to keep it organized and easy to work with.
I'm totally in agreement with you, I just wonder if the typical person that is in charge of human resources departments and hiring is flexible enough to realize that they might be better off with self taught genius than someone with a piece of paper
