Re: Slicing Bread with a Chainsaw

Utilities sometimes use OPGW (fiber embedded static wire) on the transmission level for various bulk purposes (including commercial telecom networks on occasion) so that wouldn't present a significant obstacle if they wanted to pursue it. But I'd still rather see the fiber used for utility infrastructure and not for consumers. Reliability of the electric system should be top priority.
