Fact is those construction guys are supposed to know about where gas lines, electrical, cables etc. are located before they start digging. Out here in Cali a couple of years ago, a few guys died when they hit a gas line and caused a huge explosion. The construction company undoubtedly has insurance so if I were HMS I'd nail them to the wall, they could probably get a settlement without even going to court.
If the cables weren't marked though, then that's somebody else's fault, not the construction company's. Not sure who'd be responsible for that. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bryan Stevenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 1:01 PM Subject: Re: OT: Anyone else affected by the hostmysite outage? > Same damn thing happend in Vancouver, BC last year.
