The story: A piece of underground cable went bad. The techs didn't pull new underground cable.
They decided it was better to do it "arial" (if you can call 2 feet "arial").
They took apart the two pedestals on either side of the break and ran a new strand of RG6 (yes, the
same stuff you use inside your home, not the outside-plant rated stuff) tied to trees with rope.
Why is that cable still in place?
That's a hint, not really a question. :)
That cable definitely needs to be removed in the interest of... uhh...
"community safety". Yeah, that's it. You're worried about the puppies
and children hurting themselves. ;)

to do it!)
