I've seen a lot of professorial salary surveys, and I've never seen anything higher than several hundred thousand dollars. That doesn't mean, of course, that this figure isn't accurate, but it does give rise to the question: where did you get it? You've substantiated your other figures, but I saw no indication of where this one came from. Just curious. And even if it's true, such high compensation for a highly specialized field hardly seems appropriate to lump in with "teacher" salaries.
