Does this gentleman hire himself out? There's a transformer on my place I'd like removed.

For sale: One lightly used transformer. Sold as-is, buyer assumes all responsibility for being electrocuted. :eek:

In less developed parts of the world, the utility companies often have to send out the security people during power outages to prevent people from cutting down power line & poles for scrap material.

That's interesting, and I don't doubt it for a minute. Years ago during my college years, I studied Anthropology. I remember very vividly, the professor telling us that when they began putting in telephone and telegraph lines in Australia, they had a big problem with the Aboriginals. Seems they would scale the poles and remove the glass insulators. They found out later, that they were making tools out of them, i.e. knives, scrapers and cutting instruments...glass, of course is great material for that. They solved the problem by placing all their broken insulators around the base of the poles where they were readily available.

They at least didn't chop down the poles.

I'm wondering at the incredible luck of someone who thinks it's OK to chop down a live power pole, yet has somehow managed to live to the age of 40. :confused3:

Wow! It is really sad he wasn't electrocuted. Oh well.

For each one of these, there are countless others who didn't make it.
