We have knocked down a few of them over the years. If it was my fault I'll pay it If not I will argue the point. In either case I pay insurance to cover it. I didn't read all the posts but some of you guys are just priceless. I have a good repore with the power company, I have a good reputation and I value it. They know if I am at fault I'll admit it and if I argue a point they more than likely will review it a little closer.

Those of you who would walk away and not tell anyone need to remember, who gets the electricity to your home. Who is out in the middle of the night making sure you have heat in the middle of a blizzard. I have seen our local coop send crews out 1/4 mile into the Red River in the middle of a flood during a blizzard to help its users. Knock down a pole, break a guide wire, someone may have to fix it at a terrible time. Further what if someone were to die because they had no power or fixing your mistake.
