    ATT after all these years is going to remove the abandoned telephone cable that has been laying in the bottom of Lake Tahoe ... , miles of it.

    This will lead to more petitions and legal battles over lead cables in other water ways.

    What are they going to replace it with ? Plastic ? In twenty years they will probably have to remove it, due to micro plastic pollution.

    Good question.
    Or maybe long runs of cables will be obsoleted out and everything will be wireless by then.
    Since they don't say they are replacing the cable, that may be happening now.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.
    This ain't your Grandma's sewing circle.
