I first hand believe FPL has not inspected their wooden poles. My neighborhood is filled with old rotten wooden poles that always get knocked down and not necessarily in the strongest of winds.
A couple of tropical storms ago a wooden pole on my lawn fell onto my driveway, not during the winds but about 4 days later causing my block to go without power for 2 days and me without power for about 2 weeks. The replacement pole looks it was picked up on the street on the way here.
I agree that politicians and newspapers aren't always credible but CEO's aren't any better. -- 1.33ghz G4 14" ibook -1.25 GB ram 2ghz P4 dual boot XP and Ubuntu -1.5 GB ram |
