As his parents were shutting the bedroom door behind him, Roy said "Hey, Dad?"
"Yes?"
"Remember how you said the pancake people could do whatever they wanted on that land if they had all the permits and stuff?"
"That's right"

"I suppose you'd call the building department at City Hall."
"The building departments. Okay, thanks."

RESONANCE
Despite the rather overt plotting device (one must state that other books by Hiaasen have been of much higher calibre), which is also stolen from the Goonies now i come to think about it, what is of interest here is that I read these words on the exact day when i was due to phone the building inspector of kralingen-crosswijk.
