My thoughts exactly, Charley.

Pretty soon jungle jims will be included in a new SOP section called 'back yard playground equipment'.

Well you're right that the basics were covered long ago. We're creating an extremely robust article database to educate inspectors about everything they may encounter, from mold, asbestos and aluminum wiring to the slightly more unusual stuff. I mean sure, you aren't expected to inspect a rope swing, but if you can tell the client "by the way, that rope swing is hanging from a dying Silver Birch, you might want to keep an eye on it" they'll be very impressed. You'll seem more informed and valuable. And you might even save a life. You can also give these articles to the clients to keep.

I like the word "robust" because it makes you sound smart even if you don't know what you're talking about. Never been called out on it before. Darn. But anyway, the article database is robust, I don't mean to say any particular article is robust.
