Yes it is possible to "rip off" power from lines.  The family I used to
live with, has an uncle who uses borrowed power to run a string of light
bulbs in his barn this way.

This was hashed over last year.. anyone save a copy?

You want to really talk about "free" power??  Nahh, I don't want to vanish
into never-never land just yet!

Can't say everything I know about!!
