Humble Experts

The widespread connotation of “elitist” is one of arrogance and a haughtiness born not of achievement in the trenches but of patrician privilege. However, I feel certain this was not the intent that “Masters of the Game” (Kevin D. Williamson, November 7) was meant to convey. Without altering the gist of the article, a substitution of “elite” and “elitist” with “expert” would have made for a much more palatable read.
