I don't know the truth of the matter, but the story was that on Friday
afternoon, a pull string needed to be provided in 500' of 8" duct. One
of the crew came back from the pet store with a rabbit which he
harnessed to the string. When said rabbit refused to go more than ten
feet into the duct, he pulled it back and applied a few drops of
gasoline to the exhaust pipe. It was estimated the rabbit was doing 30
MPH when it came out the other end.

And the crewman with the bright idea of using gasoline on the animal
was met at the other end of the conduit by a Humane Officer and the
local Deputy Sheriff with the "matching bracelets" already out.

Do not even kid about **** like that. Unless you want us to book
the "Michael Vick Suite" for you at the regional Club Fed.

There are more effective ways to do things like that - find a friend
with a pet Ferret or two. They aren't stupid - once the Carpet Shark
gets the idea that when they follow the sound of the ringing bell and
come out the other end of the pipe they get their favorite treat,
they'll be in and out faster than that rabbit ever could - and it
won't hurt.

And even at that you purge the pipes with a manhole blower first, to
make sure there is good air inside.
