WTF is wrong with you ? I am certainly not the fool here. That joke about the dog barking is a JOKE.

Lemme splain it to you, telco wires are not grounded, they are a pair. IF, and this is a pretty good sized IF, one of them became grounded at all there would be a ****load of noise on the line, probably to the point of making it unusable.

IT IS FICTION. And thanx for trying unsuccessfully to bust my balls. It makes me look good.

Now about the selling of daughters, that wasn't me. You should know who that was, it is in the Bible.

So you think they grounded a telephone line with a short in it to a dog chain ? And I am a fool ?

I'll tell you what, I think that anyone who EVER EVEN THOUGHT of joining the military should not be allowed to run for any office. Military people should never have domain over private Citizens. You sold your ass into slavery to the oil companies, I don't want you selling ours. (any more that is)

Hurry up and find another name to call me. It'll make you feel better.
EVER.

Yawn. The Central office grounds the positive side of their battery
bank, and in the early days some phones lines were run with existing
fence wire. They run a pair of wires to ensure a better return path to
the C.O. or where the line is multiplexed onto a copper pair or fiber
optic. The reason for protecting both wires at the network interface is
to divert induced current from lightning strikes to ground at that end
rather than let it flow back to the other end.
