sonnysnewlife Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Well while they did mention the Nuggetshooter website, I for one would have appreciated a bit more about how we can be persecuted for what we do, but they can come along and tear it up. I also have never seen wires dipping to 30 feet, but maybe they do? I think one mile of what they are doing has more impact than all of us put together in a lifetime.... :twocents: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paseclipse Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Nice one LL, guess thats a one up for us prospectors! Perhaps that will help our reputation and show people we're not all out to tear crap up. Boy if you thought we were all outraged by the video, you should read some of the comments posted by some of the readers of that article. :PO2: As for the whole arcing thing, I have to see a calculation done and certified by a Professional Engineer to believe that one. I'm curious to see where this goes. I'm sure this is just the tip of the iceberg and there will be more to come. Let me know this makes it to the evening news out there in AZ.

lotsa luck Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Thanks John, NPR carried the story and channel 3 is doing it on the news now also. The Corporation Commission has stopped them until they can review a better way and have asked me to meet with them on Monday. Guess I wasn't the only one that it ticked off. I was called a bleeding heart Liberal today by a few. I think I'm a cactus hugger I guess. AKA "Prick" would you agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jeff Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Great job Bob, stirred up a real hornets nest with that...I love it! :whoopie: :bowdown: :woohoo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakota Slim Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Good job Bob. I just hope the greenies don't turn this around to somehow condemn prospectors and desert access. You know they will if they can and I'm sure the power company now wishes nobody was out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al C Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I could not believe my eyes when I watched your video. Someone needs to go to jail. Good job bringing this into the light of day for all to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Furness Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Hey Bob if the "AKA" fits you wear it ... but since I haven't met you yet no judgements from here in NH! :innocent0009: All kidding aside ... you did a terrific job exposing this abuse. :whoopie: :whoopie: :whoopie: Mike F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Dorado Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Great Job! I too would like to see proof of electical arcing. I know those lines have pretty high voltages, but it really takes mucho to strike such a long arc. Can Saguaros burn in fires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paratrooper Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 The bozo that the reporters spoke to made a statement with a deadpan expression that he totally believed . He said that they could destroy anything that threatens to cause arcing . Like the whole world was behind him . He believes his own garbage . He says the practice will be evaluated . No harm , no foul as far as the Gubmint is concerned . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
