Now just who could you be referring to?  LOL

If every A/E and contractor paid him a small sum every year (say 1-2K) to stay home and drink coffee, he'd get a raise and each of investments would pay off MANY times over ...

(Not that I'm sanctioning a conspiracy or anything ...)

Subject: RE: Telling an AHJ "No" ?


We have an AHJ here who has been elevated to deity status by every
spineless architect, engineer, and owner that bends to his every whim
and wish.  He is generally very knowledgeable, but not always correct,
and does not appreciate having his knowledge questioned.  He refused to
even look at a formal interpretation from the ICC because he, "don't
know where those people get their ideas."!  He is an AHJ for state-owned
or state-controlled properties and has cost taxpayers many millions of
dollars for things like student computer centers designed to OH2 because
computers have plastic cases, hazardous exhaust systems for rooms where
ounces of cleaning agents will be used, and a multitude of other
"requirements".
