Re: The true meaning of "amateur"...
I always assume proffesional means it is a source of income, either full or part time and amateur means you don't derive income, full or part time from it. It doesn't imply skill to me or demean the enjoyment I get from either group. I know TONS of "professionals" who hate their jobs. I also know plenty of people who overthing the labels they apply to themselves and others.
Me, I'm an amateur, and a lover of many things, even my profession.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946
