When I became a registered land surveyor in tha state of
Arkie Land, I had swear to a code of ethics in front of tha
Arkansas State Board of Registration for Engineers and
Land Surveyors.
To be honest, I don’t remember much of what I swore to,
but I do remember that I swore to protect the Rights of the
Public.
I’ll have to be honest again and say that I wasn’t fully sure
what that meant.
I have spent many years thinking about that statement. It
is drilled into my conscious and sub-conscious mind.
I won’t try to tell you tha legal implications of that statement,
but, morally speaking, it is you and me, as well as everyone
else.
The legality of what we do has little effect, except as a tool to
protect tha public.
But morally speaking, we have that responsibility to tha public
as well as tha metal detecting community. (that’s us)
I still uphold that promise. I am no longer registered. I let my
registration laps when I became disabled.
I know this is just a hobby, but I think we should all
Protect tha Rights of tha Public for our own benefit.
Also out of our love for MD’in.
