Ready for sheetrock!

The building inspector was here again yesterday for the insulation inspection.
Yes, thats right. He needed to inspect the insulation. Like most people who hear about it, I was initially a bit perplexed by this (Why inspect the insulation?). But I have two observations: once the wall board is up, it would be very hard for a future buyer of this house to know if there is any insulation or how well it is installed. The inspector can ensure that the job is done adequately well.
Also, as he pointed out, I have recessed lights in the ceiling, some of which are rated for insulation contact and others which are not. For those lights the insulation must be at least 3 inches away from the light or a fire hazard could result. To avoid this, I could have bought only lights with an IC rating (IC for Insulation Contact).
So maybe the insulation inspection isn't completely crazy!

Any way, he was here for about five minutes yesterday, and signed off on all the work so far. No I can start wall-boarding the ceiling and then the walls.
