And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

Always held to the, "other people's lives are best viewed from a distance." I met someone who curiously shared that mode of life, still married 46yrs later, joyfully living on a little farmette, just far enough away from city life.
Around 25 years ago, we were hired to abandon in-place a diesel UST at the corner of I-77 & W. Morehead Street in Charlotte for the estate of an electrical contractor. Duke Power had discovererd that he bypassed the meter and got free power for 35+ years. Suerd the estate and won.
