Tales from the Cube: Electric Fences Don't Make Good Phone Lines |
 This
Tales from the Cube installment is a tale of an attempt to
exploit the miles of electrified fencing on rural farms for telephone
communications. It would be far cheaper to clip a special phone to the
fence lines than to set new poles and string new lines for a relative
few customers. It would have been easier to install a radio-based switching
station for the remote farmers. 20 years later they finally have one
- cellphones.
