1) Who did all of your designs? I'm in Ohio which is pretty easy to work with from what I gather, but they still wanted the GIS design of what you were doing. 2) They all want money. If you don't have $1000 you can't get product. Are you just pushing off your fiber reel off the truck? Where are you getting a truck for <$1000? 3) WISP that can't afford a one day trip, wisp wants paid for the bandwidth, still more than a one day event 4) HD wants money for seed, too. 5) Clever trick, that's a lot of hand digging to set that up and you better hope there's not a rock to divert your pipe
