Scott: Thats a fair statement.
I did my time in electrical, and that is my strong point.
One important thing though, and maybe this confirms Rizer's stance, is that the NEC is BY FAR the most difficult code/trade to learn. With that in mind, I understand why Rizer would say what he said. I'm sure you will both understand why I said what I said as well.
The nice thing about the other trades is that the plumbing and mechanical codes are about 100 pages each and can be nearly memorized. The building code is 800(?) or so, but there is no experience that can really help, other tahn architecture. Most of a building code is memorizing concepts and details.
