Re: Ha! I like this proposal said by Network Guy:Not if you have encrypted digital cable in the neighborhood  I took that as literally "stumble"; as in fall and break a bone from tripping over the wire. Had something like that happen to me when the Comcast contractors completed a switch from the old TCI hardline to their newly acquired ATTBI coax. They saw that we were not connected to the tap, and dropped the drop in the yard. I had trouble with my phone (SBC at the time, POTS), and went to the NID to troubleshoot. About 9:30 PM. Hit the Comcast drop at neck level (i.e., I made contact near my Adam's Apple!)
An injury to do lazy install (or uninstall) by Comcast, or their representatives, is a liability that falls on Comcast.
So, break a leg tripping on the lazy install, and get free TV as compensation.
