DO falsifies her credentials and signs MD

The last thing I am going to do is get into a long drawn out argument on this subject.

I don't think the anecdote you describes has any point at all.

So a DO chooses to have DO on the nametag instead of MD and this makes him/her proud of their degree?

When I have been asked this question it didn't even cross my mind to put MD (which is obviously fradulent).

If you dont want to get into a discussion about it, then asking "whats your point?" has no point at all...

The first graduating class of osteopathic physicians was granted MD degrees. Perhaps she graduated from Dr. Still's original school.

No they weren't. At one point in time, the school was given a charter to grant the MD degree and Still turned it down to continue giving his graduates the DO degree. Remember, back then the point was to distinguish themselves from the unsafe practices at the time which Still did not support.
