I really have to agree, but I feel the government already has too much 
to say in how I do things at my home.  I can't even REPLACE a bad water 
heater without getting a building permit.  Dealers will not sell the 
heater without the permit, and it is just a way to extract a $35 fee 
from the homeowner. Supposedly it is to provide inspections to insure 
proper installation, but when I insisted that the inspectors actually 
come out and inspect my installation they got very upset, and claimed it 
would cost them a lot more than the 35 would cover.  The did come out, 
since I told them my next call was to the newspaper.
