Actually I did share the info on a professional site, [ the day I found out about it] operated by one of your members, where the owner of the site does not call other inspectors, stupid, scum bags, and members there do not send reddies , with sick disgusting profanity, when I post info.that is helpful.

Just got off the ph with one of your members, told him how he can also buy it for the same price I did, with out having to pay any body, or org to get the same discount.

There is one vender, from Calif. selling them for the full price, and offering free IR training.

Training, of industry standard certification (i.e., Level 1, 2 or Building Science).

Did you take the training?

Wrong.. I never said I haven't taken a class.

Yes, I stated I have never received a certification.
Did you ever see me tell anybody how to do an IR inspection

So.. Whats your point.. Pay you $500.00 the Almighty, with less than 2 yrs in the HI profession, less than 1 yr with an IR camera on buildings, that thinks he knows it all, only to have the info provided, disputed by professionals that have in field experience.

Gotta buy a couple of them blower doors, than may you can earn a little creditiabilty with experienced professionals in the energy insp. field.

Oh BTY .The terms/ names made by one of your members in an email to me describes you , and fits you well

OK. Let's take this one at a time, OK?

A class is formal instruction, in person, and with tests to make sure (i.e. Certify) that you weren't asleep during the who thing.

So, you really don't know what you are doing, with regards to IR. WHat proof do you have that you are a "qualfiied and professioanal thermographer"?

Did you ever see me tell anybody how to do an IR inspection

No. But I did. I first did it back in 1981, when I taught at the University of Chicago medical school (Billings Hospital) to a class of interns, residents and attendings.

Seems like someone thought I was qualified, at least to the theory of IR scanning and thermal imaging.

(Hint: scanning walls looking for moisture or cold air intrusion is a LOT easier than scanning for breast cancer, brain leisions and burn victim infections. And there is a LOT less liability.)

So.. Whats your point.. Pay you $500.00 the Almighty, with less than 2 yrs in the HI profession, less than 1 yr with an IR camera on buildings, that thinks he knows it all, only to have the info provided, disputed by professionals that have in field experience.

I have never charged to teach, nor have I ever recieved any mony to teach, with regards to home inspector education.

I know that I don't meet your high and mighty standards (which you will not clarify, BTW) and am not an ASHI member.

SO FREAKIN', WHAT? WHAT THE HECK IS YOUR POINT, ANYWAY.

I have, repeatedly, tried to contact you (phone, e-mail) and talk to you about your concerns. No answers.

So, I can only assume that you are just a stalker and have no desire to actually solve the problem (much less, clearly state it) that you have with me.

If I am in error in this regard, I am easily available by private e-mail and office, cell and home phones on the bottom of all my posts.

So, don't try to give this BS that you are some sort of HI god and I am just a "newby" if you don't want to finally settle it.

I am ALWAYS available for a call and really want to discuss and settle problems. Many on this site with testify to that.

As to "disputed by professionals", please cite specifics. Are we supposed to take just your word for it?

Gotta buy a couple of them blower doors, than may you can earn a little creditiabilty with experienced professionals in the energy insp. field.

I already have blower doors and use them when needed.

Do you? Answer that, you uneducated pipsqueek!

Oh BTY .The terms/ names made by one of your members in an email to me describes you , and fits you well
</IMG></IMG></IMG></IMG></IMG></IMG></IMG>
What, when and where. Little people post things that are not provable.

Cite it, or shut the heck up. Do so, either in public, here, or in private e-mail or on the phone.

To my mind, if you had it, you would have posted it.

But you haven't.

So, here is yours right back at you.

"I have it on good authority that Dan is a chronic masterbator who regularly sneaks into the rest rooms in a local elementry school because he gets off on the smell of little boys and this is the only form of sexual satisfaction he can enjoy. I have an e-mail that proves it"

PLEASE NOTE: The above sentences (in quotes) are not real and only being used as an example of a person's twisted reasoning.

See what I mean, Dan?

LOL.. are you saying if I pay you $500.00 to make sure I stay awake I am then an educated, certified, professional IR inspector.


So, you really don't know what you are doing, with regards to IR. WHat proof do you have that you are a "qualfiied and professioanal thermographer"?

Never claimed such. Did claim that I've done over 900 IR scans and never been proven wrong, including finding a dead cat filled with live maggets,
I can say without any reservations, I learned far more about IR inspections, , science of thermography, readiing the thermal image, emissivity, reflectivity, transmissivity, identifing moisture concerns locating energy loss, investigative procedures and liminations, etc. from a $39.00 CD ,than from your state approved CE that your so proud of.

No. But I did. I first did it back in 1981, when I taught at the University of Chicago medical school (Billings Hospital) to a class of interns, residents and attendings.

Seems like someone thought I was qualified, at least to the theory of IR scanning and thermal imaging.

Thats all, gosh you forgot to mention all your and your familys other qualificiations


(Hint: scanning walls looking for moisture or cold air intrusion is a LOT easier than scanning for breast cancer, brain leisions and burn victim infections. And there is a LOT less liability.)


SO FREAKIN', WHAT? WHAT THE HECK IS YOUR POINT, ANYWAY.

LOL... LOL
Better talk to your partner. Last I heard all that info, and training is worthless in IR building inspections.



So, I can only assume that you are just a stalker and have no desire to actually solve the problem (much less, clearly state it) that you have with me.

LOL. I'll leave the stalking to your buddy bushy.
I hear he's pretty good at it.
