Stefan Kläner commented on my last blog entry saying:

But an inspection for me is a somewhat regular process. Like state authorities would inspect restaurants to make sure they work according to certain standards, or an internal check if your company fulfills all FDA requirements before an FDA audit.
So in my opinion inspection would be a repetitive task. To stay at your windshield-example (which I like), you would inspect it in the morning, to check if it is frozen or not. Obviously you wouldn’t inspect in in the summer, that’s why I wrote “somewhat regular” as it is usely triggered by an event.

In order to answer the question, I have to get back to my initial inspiration, which is the book “How to read a book”.
