Even more wires in the cables which replaced that maze. And now hundreds of cables can be replaced by one fiber. 

Yup, Pretty Amazing.  I remember back in 72 in Ft. Pierce A contractor cut a MAJOR Trunk Fiber optic cable.  Shut down a third of Florida and a shuttle Launch.  I don't believe that company has seen the light of day since THAT day!! 

Pretty sure that's not Power on that pole, unless it's not in America. That IS a beautiful Piece of Construction though.

Friend and I (both abou5t 13 years old) made a 10 foot boat and put a 7 Horsepower Elgin Engine on it and drifted about 40 miles down the Mississippi river.  It was a few hundred yards wide in my state.

What a great time we had.
