Damn those pesky property owners, huh? Always making it tough for those conglomerated gubmint-connected corporations to steal their land and rape hell out of it. What’s the matter with those people? Don’t they believe in progress?

Yeah, lets not have pipelines, power lines, water lines or sewer lines. We can live like we’re in Medieval Europe say 1,347 AD or so.

If Duke had owned Piedmont all along they would have, that’s how most of them are done.

Bought Piedmont Gas back in January 1990 at $13.50/share right now it’s $57….
It’s been a well run company and has been good to me.
Got Transco pipeline on the back of my property it don’t hurt a thing. They bush hog it every year and makes for a good deer stand at the edge of the tree line for a good kill zone.
From time to time you do hear the ‘dud-dud’-dud” of the compressors moving gas but since it’s about a mile from my house back in the woods it’s not a concern.
I’d rather have a natural gas pipeline running through my property instead of a big-assed power line any time

Actually, had ’em on some property behind my house in NC and it caused no problems.

I was mainly just being provocative to start a conversation. I do that from time to time.

Isn’t that what you religious conservatives want?

A bit of hyperbole, Buzz. They don’t won’t to rape the land. They would prefer consensual sex if possible or if needed legalized prostitution of the land. Libertarians ought to support that. Let’s face it. That land lost its virginity a long time ago.

well while we are the topic of sex, scana has raised our rates from $97 per 1000kwh to $146 per 1000kwh over the last 10 years, that is called getting fucked without even a kiss.

Piedmont Natural Gas sure makes you think they are a small business with only a four county territory in SC. I didn’t realize they cover 2/3 of NC.

That’s the purpose of the public relations technique
called ” F.E.A.R.” —- it means “False Evidence Appears Real”.
