Well, that takes me back to my college days. Marrakesh Express played in the dorm daily. That was a different state indeed, but I don’t think that state was a land mass!
What benefit is derived from making fun of a hole in a boat in which you are a passenger? Based on the prevailing conditions what would make you think the results would be different for any other home inspection association?
Like it or not we are all in this together, sure the association wars can continue unabated but expect that everyone will be faced with a troop shortage.
The 51st state is the moon. We went there and stuck our flag in it. I don’t care what the rest of the world thinks. I consider it to be U.S. territory.

Hey Beefheart and dharris, is this true?
I honestly don’t know the #s from prior yrs.
I understand there were apx 700 registered at NO.
Considering in AZ alone there are over 30% less inspectors than last yr. it sounds like a good # to me.
Now if you want to compair orgs.
Per reliable sources that were there, Nicks last convention in Canada had apx 70 registered.:roll:
That was with free ed.:roll: :roll: :roll:
I’m proud to belong to an org where my fellow, member/ competitors realize the value of getting quality ce from seasoned inspectors/ professionals, opposed to nicks version of free ce where 2 yr wonder boys are qualified to teach what they learned from a book, opposed to ashi’s requirements of real life, in the field experience.
YES I am aware of Gerry’s and some of nachos other qualified professional inspectors knowledge and experience that also provided info.
These guys are entitled to being properly compensated. Unfortunatly nachos version is give ce away for free,
End result nick has more $s in his pocket, his members get short changed on what is the most valuable item, to be, and remain succesful in this profession, and 2 yr wonders are the nacho chosen ce providers.:roll:
Some are very aware there is nothing free if it has any value at all.
Some want to belive otherwise. Majority of them will be gone or sued out of business in a short period of time…
Granted, not all www.nachi.org/benefits.htm are of use to each and every member but that is why we have so many. Pick what you like. More in www.InspectorMall.com And even more announced here and there on the message board.
What’s unfortunate about free continuing education?
