Ditto for commercial chain saw operators. That work inside buildings. We have had contractors use chain saws to demolish internal walls during remodelling and cutting fiber plus other things. JSS. On Sun, 2 Aug 1998, John M. Brown wrote:

With NM being my home and being a member of the Internet Community, I will make sure that they add Fiber Splicing to the curriculum :) I have it on good source that they will be putting some "test" fiber in the ground to verify the accuracy of the GPS systems. :)

El Rito, NM -- The Taos News reports the Northern New Mexico Community College is offering a new course on operating backhoes. Prospective backhoe operators drove 800 miles to attend the class. The class includes one week with students practicing on three John Deer backhoes on projects near the school. Additional classes offered by NNMCC include global positioning systems, welding, computer applications and first aid. No word if NNMCC will be offering classes in fiber optic cable splicing.
Backhoe operators trained in GPS, welding, and first aid. No fiber in the land will be able to hide from these trained backhoe warriors :-) -- Sean Donelan, Data Research Associates, Inc, St. Louis, MO Affiliation given for identification not representation
