I think it's more a matter of pushing the boundaries (figuratively as well as literally) to see what we might could get away with. I do love how you're defending your fellow surveyors though. ;-) (And, okay, it also turns me on a little too that you use the correct verb in the "if this were a battle..." sentence.)

If this were a battle between private landowners it would be over before it started. The owner of the original property granted the buyer property and then surveyed and recorded it. More than seven years have passed so any and all claims would be dead. Georgians should let this go, it makes them look dumb. Posted by a Georgia surveyor from Tennessee.
