I wonder if this explains why, on a nearby building site, the usual
non-working hours anti-theft precaution of dangling things like
generators 100ft in the air on a crane was embellished recently by
having 4 very long lengths of plastic pipe between generators etc and
the crane hooks. Decoiling it?


Now why didn't I think of that?
