Possibly a US Foot / Int'l foot thing?

It's been a good year in PDX and things seem to be ramping up. Residential development all but stopped in 2008-2009 and now there is a huge shortage o...

I take it, then, that this surveyor is not in your G.O.B. network. I understand your frustration, but, then, we haven't heard his side. I'd guess you ...
