Most of the useful discoveries and inventions in human history have been the work of so-called amateurs and hobbyists, not "professionals." We'd still be stuck at the "banging the rocks together" stage if folks who hadn't even attended kindergarten hadn't come up with things like pottery, the wheel, writing, etc. :p
