Your lying is indeed nonsense, boy! You're a joke, bloke. Just an old, disabled, and pathetic individual insulting anyone that tries to stand up to your childish behavior. Old? And speaking about lying: Think this over carefully: Are you disabled or retired? I am retired due to disability, boy! Or aren't you living off the money you made from suing your previous employer? I've never sued a previous employer, boy! Pick one. Pick your nose, boy! And then, we'll examine what you've said in the archives. Here's one of yours from the archives, boy: "I'm a college professor with a PhD." In reality, you live such a boring and solitary life that you'll do or say anything just to get a little bit of attention. People got you figured out. Just look at the ratings your posts earn...

That's because it's not ALL underground. Somewhere there's a feeder that isn't buried. High tension feeders are generally fine in a storm because they have wide exclusion zones, but anything near ground level is a liability in a storm. Sounds like a badly installed underground distro. We're underground here and have had 2 major earthquakes with no damage to the distribution. What are these "grates"? Here we have floodproof vent stacks. |

Don't forget to keep re-posting material from DXLD without credit. Without credit? Isn't that what happened to your "PhD" at Wayne State? No credit! LMFAO at the PhDufus from Louisville Technical Institute. - But, as you've personally documented, - I am a college professor and I did do my - doctorate work at Wayne State. - That makes me far more of a productive member - of society as opposed to you! MWB, So the 'measure' of someones "productive member of society" rests on going to college and being a college teacher ? In Bryant's world, being "productive" rests upon ones ability to lie about a non-existent PhD! And, that drug bust whilst he was a Weber State! That was his cannabis fieldwork for his dissertation. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

On the contrary, My point is people need work and there's work that needs to be done. Most utilities are privately owned... and we are talking millions and millions of trees. Were they all to be trimmed, electric rates would increase. Spoken like the true oinker that you are. If privately held utilities can't maintain their plant they should be taken over by cooperatives or some such who will. Trees don't grow on their "plant." They grow along the right of way. Utilities have trimming programs, but if they trimmed to the degree needed in a major storm, entire cities would protest. You can't prepare for everything. Why would they protest? Not trimming trees around power lines is false economy. It will cost more in the long run. |

No you have not thought it through. If you did you would come up with a list of positive and negative outcomes. You would have to look at these lists and determine the benefits and costs. You would then pick a course of action based on short and long term benefits versus costs. You have not done this or thought it through and just gave a distracting answer. Good luck to you on that. Like I said, I was in Houston for a Category 3 Hurricane. The splices are still on the wires, from where the un-maintained trees shredded them. They have since been very proactive regarding preventative maintenance of right-of-way encroachment. |

If you'd quit voting against taxes maybe you wouldn't be freezing in the dark right now. http://www.georgiapower.com/community/treepruning.asp The "disaster" was foreseen and you chose to do nothing. Dorkus Maximus has spoken! Pruning trees in KY is much more expensive than pruning palm trees in Los Angeles. Even with tax increases state and municipal gov't are facing billions in cutbacks due to the worsening economy. Forgive us if we put more emphasis on saving our school system than in pruning trees. Armchair quarterbacks always have the answer. --------------------------------------------------------------- Having been thru several up here in MN, Dave is indeed talking out of his behind. Sure, sure. Are you saying trees are not the #1 cause of power failures? You are not thinking this through. On the contrary, My point is people need work and there's work that needs to be done. Your point started with confusing the paying of taxes with work that is the responsibility of the utilities. You also seem to think the utilities don't know the cost/benefits of buried lines. The cost to bury lines would be borne by all the customers. Do you have any clue what this would cost? Do you have any idea how it compares to the cost of repairing overhead lines? Do you have any indication that the trees were NOT trimmed according to standards/guidelines or specifications? To eliminate trees as an issue would probably removing, not trimming, any tree within 40-50 feet of the power lines. You also don't seem to realize that the recent storm was not typical. Finally, when nobody agrees with your points, you bring up unemployment as your point. Would you equip 600000 people with chainsaws to trim trees? Telemon is right, you need to think about what you are posting. |

Telemon is right, you need to think about what you are posting. How do you know "nobody agrees with my points"? I posted a link to Georgia Power backing-up everything I've said here about the benefits of tree maintenance. Georgia and Kentucky have similar physical attributes. Lastly, this is a usenet bulletin board. It is not a deliberative body with any power whatsoever. What I say don't matter one iota. |
