His professional opinion? Here's what I found at his website:

Hello! My name is Jim Vanhollebeke. I am a starving artist, writer, singer, paleoanthropologist researcher. If all the nuts of the world were lined up according to quality degree, I would be near the end by the geniuses. I've always been proud of that(!). I would like to entertain you while sharing some of my unusual interests. Interests such as paleoanthropology, Elvis Tributes, Pinocchio, Apes, wolves, satire, special effects, artwork, and comedy. I hope I can blend these interests into a photo gallery that you will enjoy and perhaps return to. I hope to continue adding to the gallery or adding new galleries far into the future - so please stay tuned! If you have any comments or suggestions , please write: jim at canovan.com. Also we'd like you to visit our unique PHOTO SERVICES WEBPAGE where you can find out how easily we can put YOUR face on someone else's body! Just click here: YourPhotos.
Saying you are a 'paleoanthropologist researcher' isn't exactly the same thing as saying you are a paleoanthropologist (with relevant degrees and a history of publishing peer reviewed articles). I gather that paleoanthropology is an amateur interest of his, not a profession. And I gather that Elvis impersonations are more of an actual profession for him than paleoanthropology. Surely you can find more distinguished citations to support your point, whatever it is?
