I agree, and I brake check occasionally(when alone). I simply know that 5+ is a possible traffic stop and 5- is the same.

i see what you're saying about the big corps, they're mostly bastards in my book. As for trains, or public property such as parks, I'm against it. I think some of the very talented artists could make a damn good living though, through legal means.

Fuck!!! If this thread was a month sooner......
Honey, what do you think of your Christmas Present?
You know, japanfreak, I don't agree with a lot of what you say, but I must say that was pretty damn good!

Word well i def respect your opinion, dont fully agree with it, but thats probably just my anti authority views lol. Also the way i see it, i pay taxes, which i dont always agree with. So id rather my tax money go to pay for someone's graffiti clean up then war... Yeah i know the difference between state and federal tax but either way i figure it even's itself out...
But i def agree that there is some that can make an exceptional living out of it, in fact i actually have a buddy that does. Amazing artist! The problem is, out here atleast. That the city actually goes after legal graff wall's and shut's them down forcing kids to paint the streets.. Its very irritating because most of the kids that paint the street's fucking suck so bad and only put up a bunch of garbage as where the actual artists if they had a legal wall could spend days on a mural.

So if a local business said "Sure, go ahead and paint a community mural.", the popo would prosecute? ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! The youth of today, if allowed, could make a more poignant monument than the Vietam Memorial Wall!

So the anonymous poll is 30/30/30/10% +/-. I guess a few think I'm a troll, but I hope to help even the skeptical.

Ok, I have a question. This may not be in your field, however...
Do the police ever get information from the utility companies proactively about people using excessive electricity? Or basically does the electric companies just do their own thing and only provide information with a subpeona?

But you mentioned small town & biker gang. Sounds like people might have had it out for your friend.
I am thinking more of a metropolitian area where you would never know someone who worked for the power company unless by accident.

Sorry, to us civilians out here any large group of men wearing leather and riding bikes is a gang. No offence intended.
I was just trying to get a handle on why a utility company would rat out one of its customers. 4000W in an apartment is definitely a giveaway though.

When I was running sealed 2000W right the bill in August got to over 4000KWH for the month. And I try not to use the A/C much. I would like to go up to about 4000W but I am not sure whether I could do it and definitely couldnt do it from june to august.

A friend of mine actually melted his power meter on his house. Mind you he was running 14-1000W lights, plus all the other accessories.
He lucked out by getting a real cool power company rep that warned him by basically saying, "it might be best if you move from this location when your crop is done" and the rep told him if he paid the cost of the new meter he would replace it for him and make up a bullshit reason why the meter "failed".
I can only assume the power company rep is a grower himself and was looking out for his fellow "brothers". Needless to say, my friend cropped a little earlier than normal and moved his ass out of there quick like.
God I love living in Canada.
