Ameritech built a full blown cable system in about 30 cities in Michigan. I worked right beside them doing a rebuild for Continental. They definitly made me laugh more than once. I had to pull over to the side of the road laughing one day when I passed one of their underground crews. They had about 20 guys in orange vests and orange hardhats spaced about 5 feet apart pulling a peice of orange interduct through a field. It looked like a giant orange catterpillar.
