Dan, you're very likely responding to troll. Just compare happytuning's
email addy with these people who "hit and run" with a single post and

almost
never return to answer follow-ups or acknowledge people's replies:


The place is crawling with trolls, but he did ask an on topic question,
that's refreshing in itself.


Yes, there's that. But the question remains. Why would someone create over
a dozen aliases to post on-topic stuff? I suppose the answer's going to be
closely related to why trolls post reams of off-topic crap generally.

He also apologized and followed up with another reasonable question.
Hey, we're on a roll.


Well, that can be attributed to being outted and afraid that no one will
respond in the future to any of the many "example.com" trolls.

I remember all too well my battle with the lamp post so I'm happy
to share. Not to overstate, cracking open a concrete block isn't
all that hard. I'm pretty sure the wire is almost always going to
be embedded in the concrete but it should come free. You don't want
to cut it, creating a water proof extension would be a challenge.


There's no denying that the information could be useful to someone searching
the archives for "post lighting." I just wanted to alert you to the
research I did that shows what appears to be the same person creating sock
puppet after sock puppet.

Now back to my running OT discussion with Trader the missing jetliner.
(-: At least I know he's not a sock puppet.
