| Re: It's a joke, people. said by john1290 :said by DaneJasper :You can't transmit a signal via gas. What're you going to do, make the gas wiggle in the pipe? They're not using gas, they're using the iron PIPE. I would say they are using the gas, since they said metal or plastic, the signal could still get through. They also said that the gas has be be able to flow to the house (not completely cut-off by a valve) to work properly. So my guess is they are sending a type of 'electronic wave' through the gas to get there.
In short, if you get your gas shut off (not paying the bills?), your internet is shut off as well. -- - "Techie" Jim |
