It is nice when your work serves as a catalyst for others. it is unfortunate so many cities and counties in California do not listen or try.

In many cities, such as San Diego, it seems they destroy more monuments than they set.

"This small success, along with the 2011 article in Point of Beginning “What Lies Beneath” by Joseph D. Fenicle, PS and also the 2012 article in The American Surveyor “A Reckless Path of Destruction” by Michael J. Pallamary, PS both get credit for intensifying the City of Henderson’s efforts to search for any remaining original Townsite survey monuments prior to roadway pavement maintenance projects."
