A man with same description was seen a few hours earlier in Klamath Falls (north of Anderson, California)doing the same thing there. Anyone else have local news like this? We are so small that I wonder about other areas. LL

When confronted, the man fled south on the freeway in a silver pickup, Washington license plate A36457P.Ought not be hard to nab him.

The interesting thing is that Klamath Falls IS a few hours away, so he was seen in Oregon, then down to California. Wonder where he would have gone next.

I am in the Sacramento area, I'll be on the lookout! Was he mid-eastern? Do you know?

That is the thing, he was headed south. Hope they scared him and he doesn't do it again your way. I am going to listen to my scanner tomorrow to get the news a little faster if there is any. I will post if I hear anything. No description of the man yet.

Maybe he's just trying for a Darwin Award.

At one time, around here, it was the custom that if you referred to another FReeper in a post you also included them in the "To" Line.

Thanks for sticking up for us, but you have to feel sorry for lewislynn. He/she has been in a deep funk ever since the man he worked for was recalled. Very soon Ahnold is going to toss out of the Capitol basement.

Not a problem. I figured it was from a previous "discussion" that had nothing to do with Power Line Tampering.
To: GeronL
We had a guy like this in our area who tampered with power lines, natural gas terminals, stuff like that. He ran a string of teens to help him do his "work." He called himself "Dr. Kaos" or something like that (it's probably his prison name now). He was an anarchist.
I's suspect ALF/ELF/Earth First or some offshoot.

eco-freaks??Fortunately 99.999% these 'types' have no training in the sciences (like engineering) and so have little concept of how to be effective in their 'efforts' ...

1) It's also customary to mind one's own business
2) You didn't put my name in the "TO" box.
