In response to Larry <whoever>'s back of the envelope treatise which proves that it is not possible to pick off enough energy from high tension wires to light a barn. You are probably right about the small magnetic field, but HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF ELECTRIC FIELDS, BONEHEAD, uh...I mean larry. FLOURESCENT LIGHTS DON'T TAKE MUCH POWER ANYWAY. "Oh, I've never heard of Nikola Tesla or antennas or Maxwell's equations". WAKE UP!!!! I'm really sorry if I have offended the rest of the net, but this was just too much. The number of idiots on this net who think they know something about anything is overwhelming.
