I'm sure that all of TDD's traverses and sideshots and everything else closed perfectly within a thousandth of a foot, and even though it was a suburban ALTA survey and the tripods only had one leg, and there were miles of dog-hair thicket to be cleared with nothing but determination, a few machetes and Swiss-Army knifes, and the occasional RPG round, the burning question is this: did TDD's crew drink any water while on the job site? If so, was said water consumption charged back to the client or did Ted pay for it himself?

Let's see the original TDD invoice on this one.

He probably did it with LIDAR from the comfort of a black helicopter while duly noting the convergence of con, er, chem trails overhead.;-)

TDD doesn't use a GPS receiver. He can hear the radio waves from the satellites in his head and calculates the position in real time on the fly. He knows his State Plane Coordinate at all times within millimeters.

RTK = Real Tdd Kinematic

NOW SEE THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MAP AND SURVEY. CLOSURE DOES NOT A PLAT MAKE AND A PLAT DOES NOT A SURVEY MAKE. - THE PLAT PROVIDES A MEANS TO LOCATE THE MONUMENTS THAT REPRESENT THE PHYSICAL LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY AS ESTABLISHED BY ANOTHER PROFESSIONAL LAND SURVEYOR. TO WHICH I GIVE KUDOS TO ONE THEODORE DURA. ALL MONUMENTS ARE IN PLACE NEAR WHERE THE PLAT SAYS. THE EVER ELUSIVE FOUR ONE-HUNDREDTHS+ ARE IN PLAY, BUT I'M SURE THAT'S ME, CONSIDERING 35MPH WINDS WITH 50MPH GUSTS, QUICK SETUP TIMES AND SINGLE OBSERVATIONS.

I've followed Ted's work in the field & can always count on the filed map (plat, survey, etc.) being a very accurate representation of the site conditions- if he says it is there, you know it is there.

Chuck -

Hey 6th- Interesting to see some of the names in the monthly minutes- seems a lot more people are being "turned in" for doing "sub-standard" work- appears that most of the complaints are being dismissed.

Also interesting to see how many unlicensed individuals are being reported... sign of the times I guess, but sad.

The fines do seem to be increasing- as they should be.

Chuck
