Structural Engineer Files Survey Map (Arizona?)

Wayne Griffin might. I hope he sees this.

As I remember it, it has quite the statement on it about the knowledge of structural engineers over surveyors doesn't it?

Yes it is amazing, that is why I was looking for it.

That cert was amazing! Not only did he declare civil engineers to be stupid and surveyors functionally useless, if I recall, his information and boundary wasn't even correct! I remember trying to do some work with that map, it was horrible! I wish I could remember the book/page...

You mean this one?

Good thing that guy is in the class of the "most educated civil engineers". Of course, he must have been absent they day they discussed the idea of spell checking your maps.

"Reginstered"? Really?

Insert Homer Simpson "D'oh" sound here.

FYI, for those wondering what became of this, the guy voluntarily surrendered his license.

Oh dear God....if you ask me he's retarded no matter how much education he has and unfortunately I see a lot of that.

Thanks Larry

This is the drawing that you're looking for.

Hmm, Maricopa County. Why does that sound familiar??:-)

On a slight hijack, what happened to the Surveyor that use to post on the other board who ran for office in Arizona? He had some interesting viewpoints.

Was that map actually recorded?

Well golly gee, he must be right! His found pipes are exactley where I would proportion them to be, I can't measure that good, so when's we getting a lesson on mesuren' :-O

Huge amount of sarcasam guys. Huge.

Is

"A 1 ALTA LAND ENGINEERS SURVEYORS PLANNER APPRAISERS"

A real company?

Broken link.

> Was that map actually recorded?

Yes the map is recorded. I use that image in my "7 Deadly Sins of Surveying" class. Wouldn't use it if it wasn't a matter of public record.

[sarcasm]Um Larry,

Did you just say....

It's OK Larry, we all make mistakes....;-)

Oh, that could be any number of reasons....our State Legislature passing some arcane laws, our Governor sticking her finger in the President's face, our Sheriff who can't ever seem to pass up a photo op, our Fiesta Bowl executives on the take...

I don't really remember who you're referring to. Was that Helmuth Hack? If so, I'm not sure. He hasn't posted on the AZSurvey Topica email list in quite a while. He may have retired.

Interestingly enough, he was the one who happened to come across this Survey map that caused the firestorm.

Yes I think that was him.

Thanks Chuck,

Yep, thanks for bringing that up. Brings back memories.

I think Kent started keeping a dossier on him.
