somewhere along the way St.Paul or the residences will blow it away besides wouldn't this mean tearing up a lot of streets or anything like that?
Naw, at&t, comcast, and another group installed fibre and coax into our neighborhood and they only dug up small parts of the road. There is a drill and cable puller that they use to lay that stuff under ground, apparently with a conduit for protection. It is interesting how they can control and guide that drill head accurately in three dimensions. Beats tearing up all the streets.
