We need to work together as a profession to be “armed with facts and calculations” to give creditability to the profession across the board.

Good comments. It is annoying to listen to disciples of the “new” green movement who lack the understanding necessary to design facilities that actually work and can be maintained (sustained). Even here in the NW we have LID facilities being required in locations where they just will not work.
