Why are you posting this? It has nothing to do with the subject. We are discussing the incident in Harlem. Did you read the link?

You were wrong about your first posting and now you are tossing up mud. Man up and give it a rest.

The DOT lists 30,844 miles of main still in service. I don't know where you live, but I am sure you can request that one of the southern companies there allow you to sit in when they do a bellhole examination.

My only concern was the CAST IRON Pipe with jute and lead joints and so called wet joints still in service conveying NG the reporter is mistaken! I will call the NYC NG provider tomorrow and ask this question! And will re-post!
