No matter where they get the call you would think they        AI> would do something about low hanging wires before they get broken or        AI> at least inspect the wires and determine what is needed.              Still no show this morning. I ought to take a picture for documentation. There       is actually one other tree that is "holding up" the wire that reduces the       slack. It would be much worse if the tree wasn't there.                      AI> I was working out of town years ago (I wasn't driving) and after        AI> making a delivery we headed back out out of town and our truck (9 feet        AI> high) picked up a wire and it all unraveled from the poles.               AI> The driver made a hasty exit without stopping. ;)              In my case, the lowest is wire (cable) is just the phone cable. I should       probably lassoo the darn thing and pull it down more on the side of the tree       away from the roadway and secure it with a tie.                     --- GoldED+/W32-MINGW 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: ----> Point Of VeleNo BBs (http://www.velenobbs.net) (2:333/808.7)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 129/305 153/757 221/0 6 360 229/426 664 700 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 301/1 322/757 331/313 333/0 808 335/364 370 460/58       SEEN-BY: 4500/1       PATH: 333/808 335/364 221/6 153/757 229/664 426           |
