Call before you dig!!!

You may or may not know about the law requiring you call for utility locating before you do any excavation. The pictures below are a result of a guy using a post hole digger with out calling for “locates” and he hit an underground cross country gas pipe.

This is what a high pressure gas main is capable of.

Cant see any thing

Dantheman62 · 01-10-2009, 01:32 AM

What do you mean Swanny? you can't see the pics? the big hole blown in the ground? or is that a joke? doh! LOL!

Swanny · 01-10-2009, 01:38 AM

Cant see your white text or the pictures

If I quote your post I can see links for the pics but the pics themselves don't show

Dantheman62 · 01-10-2009, 01:41 AM

wow I see them just fine, hmmm, I copied and pasted them from an email I got from a friend. How else can I do it then, and can anyone else see them I wonder?

my problem is sometimes in an email the pictures are bitmaps( bmp) instead of jpg so I need to be careful when I copy and paste certain pics from an email, phew!, I don't know, it's all french to me, LOL! Thanks Kathleen and Swanny. I actually changed these to jpg's and uploaded them into my picture album then put them into posts, geez there's got to be an easier way, LOL!
