No worries there Harris…apparently it stumped Nick Gromicko in the past as well… click on: http://www.officer.com/news/IBS/wtae/news-2211016.html

HERE IS A SUMMARY:…But Team 4 has learned Gromicko got in trouble for failing to protect consumers in western Pennsylvania.
In 1998, the state Department of Environmental Protection denied Gromicko and his company certification to do radon testing after inspections found they improperly installed radon detectors. The DEP found 50 violations in 30 homes and fined Gromicko $14,000.
Van Osdol: “What message does that send, if someone in your position has that type of record with that many violations in something that involves home inspections?”
Gromicko: "I’m not a home inspector."
Van Osdol: “But you used to be a home inspector, is that correct?”
Gromicko: “Yes.”
There’s more to the case against Gromicko.
Van Osdol: “You never paid the $14,000 fine, right?”
Gromicko: “That’s right.”
Van Osdol: “Why not?”
Gromicko: “I did not have to.” :shock: The DEP says that’s not true. A spokesman says the fine is still “on the books uncollected” because the DEP has been unable to locate Gromicko.:shock:
QUESTION: So then why is a man who claims NOT to be a home inspector, or has failed to be one…running a HI Training Business, certifying 12 yr.olds and people who havent even performed a single inspection??? WHY?..
It’s simple…BECAUSE YOU ARE LETTING HIM…cha ching! Well…its your buck
Its reminds me of that guy who wrote…“Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus…” …a marriage counselling book…and yet he was divorced at the time…:roll:
Oh hey …one more for ya…(a member talking about a certified, test passing female NACHI member)

I agree, I see her posts everywhere on this board, about every subject. **How can someone have so much knowledge about home inspecting, having never actually done one. **LOL, whatever
Yet NACHI claims to have strict quality assurance when it comes to awarding NACHI certification? WOW…I know that I sure dont want someone who has never done one inspection…looking at my potential new home! Yikes…that is right up there with a 12 year old performing one!..:shock:
Sheesh Nick…maybe you should let me revamp that test for you…afterall…in order to fit your hiring criteria…apparently I have to be “hot”…and like a dog that is loyal…following you all around…yadda yadda yadda…
well…the first part I’ve been told is right…even with a name like Nethran…but acting like a dog around you…? I think not…
meow…:cool-cat:
