Just proves you are not a complete idiot (which I already knew. After all, you are a NACHI member )

I wonder if the paper knows this guy belonged to an association that untill recently allowed its members to find defects, so they could charge suckers to fix the ones they found.

Very good point.

NACHI SOP and COE exceeds the Illinois requirements with regards to ethics and SOP. Forget about these stupid "just take and on-line test and pay ypur money" crap. I could have joined ASHI or NAHI when I was newly licensed (and done 250 $95.00 "special" inspections and become a "full" member of either association. But I chose NACHI. In fact, I was a NACHI member even before I was licensed, I just was smart enough (read: I READ THE NACHI RULES!!!!!) to not actually do inspections before I was licensed. If I had done an inspection before I was licensed, I would have been violating the NACHI SOP and COE. It really is a no brainer.

This clear and plain point is obviously lost on Mr. Marten.

And this guy teaches?

'Those who can...do. Those who can't...teach. Those who can't teach....teach gym."
Woody Allen



"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing is worth a war, is worse. A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

- John Stuart Mill

Will... it does not need to make sense with this guy as his agenda does not fit the truth.
Guess that is how he teaches as well.
