Excellent! If it were German, though, it would have to accommodate multiple titles (Herr Doktor Professor, etc.)

Heh, shadowsmark can confirm that the "Herr Doktor Professor" example was the first thing out of my mouth also. Love the 2nd example.

clarkprice swears they don't usually do that. He was quite amused as well.
