Doesn't really seem to work, anymore. Darn it!

I recall a story from my college years. One of my chemistry profs related that just after he got his PhD, he and his wife went on vacation. He registered in the hotel as "Dr & Mrs". Middle of the night, banging on the door, "Doctor, doctor. We have an emergency. Come quick!" He said that he wasn't a doctor off the college campus ever again.
